abide by the board's decision. If a police officer retired
for | ||||
disability, except one who voluntarily retires after 20 years' | ||||

from
disability, the board shall certify to the chief of | ||||
police that the member

resume the duties of his or her
position. In case of emergency, | ||||
a disabled police officer
may be assigned to and shall perform | ||||
such
duty without right to compensation as the chief of police | ||||
or chief officer
of the municipality may
direct. This Section | ||||
does not apply to a police officer who has attained the age of | ||||
