Bill Summary

Further defining a quorum of a public body in the town of Monson

AI Summary

This bill further defines the quorum requirements for public bodies in the town of Monson. It specifies that for public bodies that require a simple majority of their members to form a quorum, the quorum shall be a simple majority of the members actively serving on the body, rather than a majority of the total number of authorized members. This change applies to multiple-member boards, commissions, committees, or subcommittees within the executive or legislative branch of the town, but excludes those whose members are elected by the town's registered voters.
