    §  13-118 Allowance of service with respect to involuntary separations
  of  certain  members.  Notwithstanding  any  provision  of  law  to  the
  contrary, any member:
    a. who is in city-service in a career pension plan position; and
    b.  whose  name  was  included in a preferred eligible list during any
  period  occurring  after   December   thirty-first,   nineteen   hundred
  thirty-one,  and  prior to January first, nineteen hundred thirty-eight,
  by reason of the abolition of a position held by  him  in  city-service;
  and
    c.  was a member or former member at the time when his or her name was
  placed on such list; shall be permitted to contribute to the  retirement
  system, the amount which he or she would have contributed to such system
  during  such  period  of  inclusion  of  his  or  her name on such list,
  together with regular interest on such amount, if during such period  he
  or  she  had  continued in city-service in such abolished position. Upon
  the payment of such amount to the retirement system, such service  shall
  be  credited  to  such  member  as  though  it were city-service for all
  purposes, including eligibility for benefit.
