An Act relative to the disability retirement of Michael D. Chapdelaine, a police officer in the city known as the town of West Springfield

This bill increases the monthly disability pension for retired West Springfield police officer Michael D. Chapdelaine, who was permanently incapacitated by injuries sustained in 2000. The legislation raises his allowance to 100% of his original compensation rate and allows him to work without penalty at up to half his pension amount, provided he does not work for the government. Additionally, the act establishes specific survivor benefits for his spouse and unmarried children if he passes away before them. These financial adjustments are designed to support Chapdelaine and his family while he receives his disability retirement.
