Relates to the transfer of the regional state park police to the division of state police; repealer
This bill transfers the regional state park police from the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to the Division of State Police. It directly affects park police officers, their current employer, and the state police division by moving all duties, personnel, facilities, records, vehicles, and assets to the new division. Key provisions ensure employees face no salary reduction, retain accrued leave and seniority, and must pass background checks to join the state police; those with four or more years of service may skip standard promotion waiting periods. The transfer preserves ongoing cases, contracts, and rules without disruption, with the Division of State Police assuming all related responsibilities.
