AI Summary

This bill authorizes the release of a portion of land in the town of Raynham from an agricultural preservation restriction, subject to certain conditions. The released land can only be used for the construction of a fire/police station. If the land is sold or transferred for other purposes, the agricultural preservation restriction will be reimposed. The town of Raynham must dedicate two other parcels of land for conservation purposes to ensure no net loss of protected open space. The town must also provide an appraisal to determine the fair market value of the released and dedicated parcels, and compensate the Commonwealth if the value of the released parcel is greater.
