Bill Summary

For legislation to authorize the appointment of Doumy Pamera as a police officer in the city of Boston, notwithstanding the maximum age requirement. Public Service. [Local Approval Received.]

AI Summary

This bill directs the Boston Police Department to make an exception to its standard maximum age requirement for police officer recruitment, specifically for an individual named Doumy Pamera. The legislation would allow Pamera to be considered for a police officer position despite being over the typical age limit, provided he meets all other professional requirements established by the department. The bill overrides any existing laws or previous regulations that might otherwise prevent Pamera from being appointed, including provisions in Chapter 43 of the Acts of 2007. If Pamera successfully passes all other qualifying criteria, he will be eligible to have his name certified for an original appointment as a police officer. The bill would take effect immediately upon its passage, allowing for prompt consideration of Pamera's application.
