An Act authorizing the appointment of retired police officers to perform police details

This bill allows the Town of Plainville to hire retired full-time police officers as special police officers to assist with law enforcement duties. To qualify, retired officers must have retired in good standing, pass a medical exam, and remain under age 70, while also covering the costs of their own medical screenings and uniforms. Once appointed, these special officers will have the same arrest powers as regular officers but will not receive certain retirement benefits or be subject to specific age limits for regular police service. The appointments are set for one-year terms starting July 1 and can be ended by the town administrator with 14 days' notice.
