NHRS retirees are already drawing from the pension system. Allowing them to work more hours without paying into the system while collecting a NHRS pension puts the financial stability of the system at risk. Although municipalities get lower-cost workers, the taxpayers may find their community has more employees resulting in higher taxes, and the Pension System suffers as the pool of finances is being depleted. Such depletion could escalate the future burden on taxpayers and also endanger pension support for future retirees. Thank you for your consideration.
