An Act authorizing the town of Clinton to continue the employment of police chief Mark R. Laverdure.
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 any general or special law to the contrary, Mark R. Laverdure, chief of police of the town of Clinton, may continue to serve in that position until reaching age 70, the date of his retirement or the date he is relieved of his duties by the select board of the town of Clinton at the select board’s discretion, whichever occurs first; provided, however, that he is mentally and physically capable of performing the duties of his office. The select board may, at the town's own expense, require that Mark R. Laverdure be examined annually by a physician designated by the select board, to determine such physical and mental capability to perform the duties of his office. No further deductions shall be made from the regular compensation of Mark R. Laverdure pursuant to chapter 32 of the General Laws for service subsequent to his reaching age 65 and upon retirement he shall receive a superannuation retirement allowance equal to the allowance that he would have been entitled had he retired upon reaching age 65.
SECTION 2. This act shall take effect upon its passage.
