An Act authorizing the appointment of retired police officers as special police officers in the town of Norwood

This bill authorizes the town of Norwood to appoint retired police officers as special police officers within the town. It directly affects Norwood's local government and retired officers who may be hired under this provision. The key mechanism is the local authorization granted by the bill, which requires prior approval from Norwood's town officials (already received as noted in the abstract). The policy change allows the town to utilize retired officers' experience for specific law enforcement duties.
