AI Summary

This bill authorizes the Commissioner of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance to convey a certain parcel of state-owned land in the town of Lancaster to the town. The town of Lancaster must pay the Commonwealth $1 as consideration for the conveyance. If the town decides to sell or lease any portion of the parcels, the net proceeds will be split equally between the town and the Commonwealth, though the Commissioner can agree to reduce the Commonwealth's share to at least 40% to incentivize the town to sell or lease the parcels expeditiously. If the town decides to retain any portion of the parcels for municipal purposes, it must pay the Commonwealth the fair market value of those portions, as determined by an independent appraisal. The town is responsible for all costs and expenses related to the conveyance and subsequent ownership of the parcels. If the town does not complete the purchase by December 31, 2023, the Commissioner may sell or lease the parcels to other parties using competitive bidding processes.
