§ 1509.31. SERVICE CONNECTED DISABILITY RETIREMENT; ALLOWANCE.

Latest version.

Upon retirement for disability resulting from injury or illness incurred in performance of duty, members shall receive a disability retirement allowance of 50 percentum of the member's final compensation. Provided, if such member might otherwise elect to retire for service at a greater retirement allowance pursuant to the provisions hereof, and should said member elect to receive a disability allowance, then the disability retirement allowance payable to the member shall be in an amount not less than that sum the member would have received had an election been made to receive a retirement for service allowance. Such election shall be irrevocable by the member thereafter.
