Non-Precedential Effect. The District and the Union acknowledge and agree that the decision to enter into this Memorandum of Agreement is based solely on the unique circumstances relating to the Affected Member’s Notice of Retirement. Specifically, the Notice of Retirement was entered into in reliance on the Teachers’ Retirement System of Illinois’ (“TRS’”) Early Retirement Option (“ERO”) as set forth under Public Act 98-0042. The ERO allowed qualified TRS members the option to retire early without reduction in their pension benefits if they were at least 55 years old and had at least 20, but not more than 35, years of service. The General Assembly of Illinois, however, failed to extend the ERO provision of Public Act 98-0042 before its expiration on July 1, 2016, thereby prohibiting TRS members from retiring early without accepting a reduction in their pension benefits. The parties further agree that this Memorandum of Agreement shall not bind them with respect to the parties’ respective treatment of any future situations involving a Union member’s request to revoke his or her irrevocable notice of retirement. In addition, the parties agree not to submit this Memorandum of Agreement to any labor arbitrator or state or federal administrative or judicial court as evidence of the parties’ alleged past practice regarding the parties’ treatment of any future situations involving irrevocable notices of retirement.
