AI Summary

This bill exempts the town of Tewksbury from the civil service law requirements for recruiting and hiring full-time permanent police officers. Instead, the town can implement its own competitive hiring process that gives preference to Tewksbury residents and U.S. military veterans. After a 12-month probationary period, the hired police officers would then be considered full-time tenured civil service employees under the state's civil service law.
