The bill presented by William F. MacGregor seeks to direct the Boston Police Department to waive the maximum age requirement for police officer appointments specifically for Constantinos Papadopoulos. This legislation overrides any existing laws, including chapter 43 of the acts of 2007, that may impose such age restrictions. If Papadopoulos fulfills all other qualifications set by the Boston Police Department, he will be eligible for certification for original appointment as a police officer.
The bill emphasizes the unique consideration for Papadopoulos, allowing him to bypass the age limit that typically applies to police officer candidates. It is designed to take effect immediately upon passage, ensuring that the waiver can be implemented without delay.
