An Act authorizing the town of Rowley to continue employment of call firefighter Donald Dupray.
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, Donald Dupray, call firefighter of the town of Rowley, 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 Rowley board of selectmen at its discretion, whichever occurs first; provided, however, that he is mentally and physically capable of performing the duties of his office. The board of selectmen may, at the town's expense, require that Donald Dupray be examined annually by a physician designated by the board of selectmen 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 Donald Dupray pursuant to chapter 32 of the General Laws, and, upon retirement, he shall receive a superannuation retirement allowance equal to that which he would have been entitled had he retired upon reaching the age of 65.
SECTION 2. This act shall take effect upon its passage.
