Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the public authorities law, in relation to providing reimbursements to sworn officers of the metropolitan transportation authority police department non-revenue E-ZPasses
AI Summary
This bill amends the public authorities law to provide a non-revenue E-ZPass (an electronic toll collection device) to every sworn officer of the metropolitan transportation police department, including police officers, the chief of police, deputy chief, captains, lieutenants, and sergeants employed by the metropolitan transportation authority. The E-ZPass is exclusively for commutation purposes, and officers are required to surrender their E-ZPass upon retirement, resignation, or termination, unless otherwise specified in a represented memorandum of agreement with the authority. By offering this benefit, the bill aims to provide a toll-free commuting option for metropolitan transportation police department personnel as a form of professional courtesy and potential job benefit. The bill would take effect immediately upon passage.
