AI Summary

This bill amends the provisions of Chapter 177 of the Acts of 2020, which authorized the transfer of certain parcels of land in the town of Bridgewater from the Department of Correction to the Department of Fire Services. The key changes are: 1) Expanding the width of the trail easement from 10 feet to 50 feet. 2) Allowing the Commissioner of Capital Asset Management, Maintenance, the Department of Corrections, and the Town of Bridgewater to agree on the boundaries of the easement, rather than being limited to the Commonwealth's boundary. 3) Adding language to allow for the construction of parking areas for up to 10 vehicles at both the northern and southern ends of the trail easement, with the precise locations to be agreed upon by the same parties. The purpose of these changes is to further regulate the transfer and control of the land in Bridgewater between the two state agencies and the town.
