Bill Summary
For legislation to authorize Stephen Justice to take the civil service examination for the position of firefighter in the city of Haverhill, notwithstanding the maximum age requirement. Public Service. [Local Approval Received.]
AI Summary
This bill creates a special exception to the standard civil service age restrictions for Stephen Justice, allowing him to take the firefighter examination for the City of Haverhill despite potentially exceeding the maximum age limit typically imposed for such positions. The legislation specifically overrides any existing general or special laws, rules, or regulations that would normally prevent an applicant from being considered for a firefighter position due to age. If Stephen Justice meets all other professional and qualification requirements for the firefighter role, he will be eligible for certification and appointment to the Haverhill fire department. The bill would take effect immediately upon its passage, creating a one-time, individualized waiver of the standard age restrictions that would otherwise disqualify him from applying for the firefighter position.
