(a) A member of the police department placed
on the retired list, except those that have served on the department for
twenty (20) years or more and have been retired for that reason, shall
report for duty to the chief of police as is provided in the bylaws of the
local board. A member is then subject to the orders and discipline of
the chief and shall perform the duties that are required of the member
and for which, in the opinion of the police surgeon, the member is fit,
considering reasonable accommodation to the extent required by the
Americans with Disabilities Act. The member shall be paid full salary
for these duties.
(b) If a retired member refuses to obey orders or breaches discipline,
the chief shall report the member at once to the safety board for action
that is considered proper for the good of the service. A member is
subject to punishment and dismissal in the same manner as officers in
active service. The pension to which the retired member is entitled
ceases upon the member's expulsion, and the pension is subject to the
action considered proper by the safety board.
(c) The police surgeon of the municipality shall examine members
of the police department when:
(1) the local board requests it;
(2) a member requests it for the purpose of certifying the
member's physical or mental condition to the local board; or
(3) the police surgeon considers it proper.
The police surgeon shall then certify to the local board the true physical
or mental condition of the person.
(d) To the extent required by the Americans with Disabilities Act,
the transcripts, reports, records, and other material compiled to
determine the existence of a disability shall be:
(1) kept in separate medical files for each member; and
(2) treated as confidential medical records.
