AI Summary

This bill aims to amend the composition of the Martha's Vineyard Commission, a regional planning and regulatory agency, by replacing the Governor's cabinet member representative with a representative appointed by the Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head Aquinnah, an indigenous tribe located on Martha's Vineyard. Additionally, the bill removes the fifth sentence of the fifth paragraph of the existing law, which likely contained provisions related to the previous cabinet member representative.
