S 2695 New York Senate · 2023 Regular Session

Relates to the completion of training requirements for sheriffs and undersheriffs

This bill amends existing laws to clarify that elected or appointed sheriffs and undersheriffs are exempt from mandatory basic police training requirements. While the legislation maintains strict training mandates for regular police officers, it explicitly removes these obligations for sheriff and undersheriff positions. The change ensures that these specific law enforcement leaders are not subject to the same certification rules applied to other municipal police personnel.
