An Act authorizing the town of Natick to continue the employment of Police Chief James Hicks beyond the age of 65

This bill allows the Town of Natick to employ its current Police Chief, James Hicks, until he turns 67, rather than requiring him to retire at age 65. Under the new rules, the Select Board can require annual medical exams to ensure he remains physically and mentally capable of performing his duties. Additionally, the bill ensures that Hicks will not have his salary reduced after turning 65 and will receive the same retirement benefits as if he had retired at that earlier age.
