A 7547 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to designating uniformed officers of the fire marshal's office of the town of Huntington as peace officers

This bill designates uniformed officers in Huntington's fire marshal's office as peace officers when performing fire-related duties, such as enforcing fire safety laws and responding to fire perils. It specifically authorizes them to act under criminal procedure law for fire-related matters but explicitly prohibits carrying firearms without a valid license under Penal Law section 400.00. The policy change directly affects Huntington's fire marshal officers, granting them limited peace officer authority for their core fire safety responsibilities. The bill contains no new funding or broad regulatory changes, focusing solely on clarifying officer status for existing fire enforcement duties.
