Sen. Mark Montigny

Maddy summaryThis bill allows the town of Acushnet to hire retired full-time police officers as special police officers to assist with police duties. To qualify, these individuals must have voluntarily retired due to age, maintain their own health insurance, and pass a medical exam, and they are exempt from certain state laws regarding age limits and specific employment protections. While they will have the same arrest powers as regular officers and must follow department rules and training requirements, they will be paid only for the specific details they work and will not receive additional town benefits or benefits tied to their previous retirement.
