BILL NUMBER:S7369 TITLE OF BILL: An act in relation to authorizing certain individuals to take the competitive civil service examination and be placed on the eligible list for appointment as a part-time police officer for the town of Elmira, county of Chemung SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: This legislation authorizes the State of New York to allow Cory Ripley, of the Town of Horseheads in Chemung County, and Mr. Patrick Dotts of the Town of Elmira in Chemung County, exemption from the age requirements of Civil Service Law Section 58. JUSTIFICATION: The Civil Service Law requires that a full-time competitive police officer be no less than twenty years, and no more than thirty-five years of age. This limits the ability of small municipalities such as Elmira to locate and hire the best part-time police officers available. Mr. Ripley (Horseheads) and Mr. Dotts (Elmira) are police Academy graduates who are currently serving as a part-time police officers in the Elmira town Department and would qualify as a top-tier candidate for the available position if the age restriction did not disqualify them.
