AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 30A of the General Laws to require state agencies to provide a brief statement describing any proposed administrative action that could have a significant financial impact on municipalities, such as requiring them to expand existing services, employ additional personnel, or increase local expenditures. The bill establishes a process for the Local Government Advisory Committee, the Division of Local Mandates, and the Department of Housing and Community Development to review the proposed action and notify the agency if they believe it has the potential for significant impact. If so, the agency must convene a meeting to discuss the potential impact before implementing the action.
