Water supply: systems; authority as municipal authority; modify. Amends sec. 2 of 1965 PA 203 (MCL 28.602).
This bill amends the Michigan Commission on Law Enforcement Standards Act to clarify the definition of a "law enforcement officer" for the purpose of state oversight. The change expands the list of individuals considered law enforcement officers to include specific public safety roles such as fire arson investigators, university security personnel, and certain investigators employed by county prosecuting attorneys. By updating these definitions, the bill ensures that the commission's authority and standards apply to a broader range of sworn and empowered personnel across various agencies. This adjustment directly affects the regulatory framework governing these specific groups and the commission responsible for setting their professional standards.
