Summary
The bill lets the city of Beverly keep John G. LeLacheur as police chief until he turns 70, retires, or is removed by the mayor, as long as he is mentally and physically fit. The city can require a physician exam at its expense, and his salary and retirement benefits will not be reduced after age 65. This ensures continuity of leadership while protecting the chief’s compensation.
