An Act authorizing Adam T. Jankowski to take the civil service examination for the position of police officer in the city of Haverhill notwithstanding the maximum age requirement
This bill (H 4178) grants a one-time exception for Adam T. Jankowski to take the civil service exam for a Haverhill police officer position, bypassing the city's standard maximum age limit. It directly affects only Adam T. Jankowski, who would otherwise be ineligible due to age. The bill requires approval from Haverhill's mayor and city council (as noted in the petition) and does not change any general civil service rules. It is a procedural waiver specific to this individual's application.
