EMPLOYMENT OF OFF-DUTY OFFICERS (§ 15.2-1712)

Notwithstanding the provisions of §§ 2.2-3100 through 2.2-3127, any locality
may adopt an ordinance which permits law-enforcement officers and deputy
sheriffs in such locality to engage in off-duty employment which may
occasionally require the use of their police powers in the performance of such
employment. Such ordinance may include reasonable rules to apply to such
off-duty employment, or it may delegate the promulgation of such reasonable
rules to the chief of the respective police departments or the sheriff of the
county or city.
