Bill Summary

Providing for special police officers in the city of Leominster

AI Summary

This bill allows the mayor of Leominster, Massachusetts to appoint retired Leominster police officers as special police officers to perform traffic details. The special police officers will have the same arrest and police powers as regular Leominster police officers, but they will not be subject to certain civil service laws or eligible for the same benefits as full-time employees. The special police officers must pass a medical exam, undergo annual training, and comply with the chief of police's rules and regulations, all at no cost to the city. The bill also repeals a previous law related to special police officers in Leominster.
