Title of bill
An act to authorize Thomas Malley to take the competitive civil service examination and be placed on the eligible list for appointment as a full-time police officer for the village of Fort Plain, county of Montgomery
Purpose
Authorizes Thomas Malley to take the competitive exam for police officer and be placed on the eligible list for such position in the village of Fort Plain.
Summary of provisions
Section 1: Authorizes Thomas Malley to sit for the civil service exam and be placed on the eligibility list for full time police officer for the village of Fort Plain.
Section 2: Thomas Malley is subject to the merit and fitness provisions of the civil service law applicable to full-time officers.
Section 3: Establishes the effective date as immediately.
Justification
Under the Civil Service Law, as proscribed under Section 58, no individual may take the civil service examination, nor be eligible for a civil service appointment as a police officer, at the age of 35 or older. Due to this limitation, the village of Fort Plain Police Department has requested legislation to permit one of their part-time officers, Thomas Malley, to be eligible to take the civil service examination since he is currently older than 35 years old.
In small rural areas, it is difficult to attract or maintain qualified applicants to fill such positions. Upon Thomas Malley passing the examination, this would qualify him to fill the vacant full-time position within the village of Fort Plain Police Department.
