Conforms statute to reflect court ruling regarding minimum age for eligibility as municipal police officer.

This bill changes the minimum age requirement for municipal police officers in New Jersey from 21 to 18 years old, directly affecting individuals seeking appointment to local police departments. It amends N.J.S.40A:14-127 to align the statute with a 1974 New Jersey Supreme Court ruling that determined the age of majority (18) supersedes the previous minimum age. The provision ensures applicants meeting the age requirement at the time of a civil service exam are eligible, while preserving existing employment for officers hired before the law's adoption. The bill implements a court-ordered correction to state law, not a new policy.
