AI Summary

This bill aims to sustain community preservation revenue in Massachusetts. It amends Chapter 44B of the General Laws to allow the Commissioner of Revenue to increase the surcharges under Section 8 of the chapter if the estimated balance of the Massachusetts Community Preservation Trust Fund is insufficient to support a 50% first-round match distribution to all cities and towns that have accepted the relevant sections of the chapter. The bill also expands the applicability of the surcharges to include the filing of subordinate mortgages extended by public agencies or quasi-public agencies, such as municipalities or the Massachusetts Housing Partnership.
