More detail about the retiring and rehiring of Alsup. You can also view his contract. The action basically is a simple move so he can collect retirement and then come back at full employment. I'm told the state law was recently changed to allow this. Previously, it did not allow you to work at the same KPERS employer for full salary. Although you could go to another public agency and do that. But now you can, after sitting out 60 days, do exactly that.
As Dick Bonfy said, it may not look right, but there is practicality in the decision and it's hard to blame somebody for pursing their financial interests from a retirement system that they paid into for years.
It will not rest well in the minds of the public, however, and is another chip off the trust in government.

if the law is now as you say, it is an example of how the government employees have taken advantage of the taxpayers !!! This is absolute BS, and something has to be done about our government's twisted sense of entitlement to our money
