Bill > H4894

This bill amends the training requirement for the fire department cadet program in the city of Boston. It reduces the completion requirement for the cadet program from 2 years to 1 year, and allows individuals who have completed at least 1 year of service as a fire cadet to be appointed to fill a vacancy in the lowest grade of the fire force without certification from an eligible list, as long as they are on the fire entrance eligible list or pass a qualifying examination. The bill also includes a provision for partial invalidity, stating that if any provision is held to be invalid, the rest of the act remains in effect. Finally, the bill specifies that it will take immediate effect upon passage.
