An Act Exempting David Eddy from the Maximum Age Requirement For Firefighters in the City of Methuen.
Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to exempt David Eddy from the Maximum Age Requirement for Firefighters in the City of Methuen, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:
Section 1. Notwithstanding sections 58, 61A and 61B of Chapter 31 of the General Laws or any General or Special law to the contrary, David J. Eddy may have his name certified for original appointment to the position of firefighter in the City of Methuen, notwithstanding having reached the age of 32 before taking any civil service examination in connection with such appointment. In all other aspects, David J. Eddy shall be eligible for appointment to the position of fire fighter in the City of Methuen only insofar as he qualifies and is selected for employment under Chapter 31 of the General Laws, any regulations of the Civil Service Commission and any lawful hiring practices of the City of Methuen. This examination shall apply only to the certified lists assembled under the examination conducted prior to the adoption of this act.
Section 2. This act shall take effect upon its passage.
