SECTION 1. Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, Ronald Radwich, Chief of the fire department of the town of Middlefield, may continue to serve in such position until 10/26/25, the date of his retirement, or until the date he is relieved of his duties by the Select Board, whichever occurs first; provided, however, that he is mentally and physically capable of performing the duties of his office. The Select Board may, at its own expense, require that Ronald Radwich be examined by an impartial physician designated by the town to determine such capacity. No further deductions shall be made from the regular compensation of Ronald Radwich pursuant to chapter 32 of the General Laws for any service subsequent to 10/26/25, and upon retirement, Ronald Radwich shall receive a superannuation retirement allowance equal to that which he would have been entitled had he retired on that date.

SECTION 2. Ronald Radwich shall be subject to the limitations on the hours worked and on payments to retired Town employees under Paragraph (b) of Section 91 of Chapter 32 of the General Laws. To see if the Town will vote to change the regular by-laws by changing Selectmen to Select Board wherever it appears in the regular by-laws; or take any other action relative thereto:

SECTION 3. This act shall take effect upon its passage.
