The recent amendment to Bill HB 5490 clarifies that a chief of police who has chosen not to participate in a municipality's pension fund, through an irrevocable agreement, will not be able to join that fund later. This change is significant because it reinforces the decision made by the chief and helps municipalities manage their pension obligations more effectively.
