GREAT-4(2) Reso 22-200 MAUI COUNTY COUNCIL LEGISLATIVE PACKAGE (RESOLUTION 22-200, RELATING TO REMOVAL OF THE MINIMUM AGE REQUIREMENT FOR POLICE OFFICER RETIREMENT) (GREAT-4(2))
I support the 25 year plan. I like many officers can agree that this job is demanding on both our mental and physical health. I joined after the age of 30, being a more mature officer when I joined. I am hoping I am still able to enjoy retirement at 55 years of age…..
Support! 25 years of service is honorable and a worthy accomplishment. Let's not hold a age requirement over the members head to delay retirement. Age should not matter as the member would already be at a minimum mid forty after 25 years of service. Let's give them an opportunity to explore other avenues while they are relatively able to.
I support the 25 year service retirement time period WITHOUT having to be the age of 55 to retire. This would help with the recruitment and retaining younger officers.
Dear Sir or Madam,
As a current police officer serving under the orginal 25 year requirement without age 55, I can tell you this is awesome. As we currently stand, the years of service and age requirement is a major contributing factor with young officers not joining, or deciding to leave. The job of a police officer is unique and unattactive under this current system and will increase the departure from this professions. I said it many times, a police officer is not like another government job. By the time you hit 25 years, it's usually in the interest of the officer that they consider moving on from this type of service. Thank you.
Statistically police officers die younger than the national average. They should be able to enjoy their retirement after giving their service regardless of age.

This will help with recruitment, retention, and build morale. Especially in this day and age of policing.

This needs to go to the State Legislature as well.
Support a 25 year service retirement time period regardless of what age you are when you attain it.
