Sec. 13. (1) The council may establish a police force, and may authorize the president to appoint, with the consent of the council, the number of police officers and other personnel that the council considers expedient for the good government of the village and protection of persons and property. The council by ordinance may delegate authority to the police chief to employ police officers and other personnel. This subsection is subject to an ordinance adopted under section 8 of chapter V. (2) The police force shall comply with the minimum employment standards for law enforcement officers published by the law enforcement council under the Michigan law enforcement officers training council act of 1965, 1965 PA 203, MCL 26.601 to 26.616. History: Add. 1998, Act 254, Imd. Eff. July 13, 1998 Compiler's Notes: The reference in this section to “Michigan law enforcement officers training council act of 1965, 1965 PA 203, MCL 26.601 to 26.616” evidently should read "Michigan law enforcement officers training council act of 1965, 1965 PA 203, MCL 28.601 to 28.616”.
