Summary of Bill J 611: Honoring outgoing Chief Nicholas R. DiPasquale

Purpose and Intent

Bill J 611 is a resolution recognizing and honoring Chief Nicholas R. DiPasquale for his 16 years of distinguished service with the East Williston Fire Department. The measure designates him for special recognition upon his departure from active duty, signaling formal gratitude from the legislative body for his leadership and contributions to public safety and the community.

Key Provisions

  • Expression of appreciation for Chief DiPasquale’s 16 years of service.
  • Designation for special recognition by the legislative body.
  • Ceremonial acknowledgment likely to be recorded in official proceedings and communications.
  • Transmittal of recognition to Chief DiPasquale and the East Williston Fire Department (a typical component of ceremonial resolutions, though the exact text is not provided in the summary).

Note: The bill is categorized as a resolution, not an appropriations or regulatory measure. As such, it serves as a ceremonial acknowledgment rather than creating or changing law or funding.

Affected Parties and Impact

  • Primary beneficiary: Chief Nicholas R. DiPasquale, upon his designation for special recognition.
  • East Williston Fire Department and the broader community, which benefits from formal acknowledgment of exemplary service.
  • The adopting body (likely a legislative chamber) and its records, which will carry the resolution as part of its official history.

Procedural and Timeline Details

  • Introduced: March 28, 2025.
  • Initial referral: Finance (on March 28, 2025) — a standard step even for ceremonial measures in some bodies.
  • Adopted: April 8, 2025 (appearance of multiple entries indicating calendar placement and final adoption on that date).
  • Status: ADOPTED.
  • Sponsor: Jack M. Martins (primary).

Additional Notes

  • There is no explicit fiscal impact noted in the available information; as a ceremonial resolution, it does not typically involve spending or statutory changes.
  • The bill’s adoption adds a formal, public commendation to Chief DiPasquale’s career and preserves the recognition in the official record.

If you’d like, I can add a brief note on typical presentation of such resolutions (e.g., where ceremonies might occur, who presents the proclamation) or tailor the summary to a specific audience (resident constituents, fire department personnel, or local government officials).
