Bill Summary
For legislation to update the definition of gateway municipalities. Economic Development and Emerging Technologies.
AI Summary
This bill updates the definition of "gateway municipalities" in Massachusetts law. Specifically, it expands the definition to include two or more municipalities that form an inter-municipal agreement, as long as their combined population is between 35,000 and 250,000, and they have a median household income and educational attainment rate below the state average. The previous definition only included individual municipalities meeting those criteria. This change allows more areas to qualify as "gateway municipalities," which may make them eligible for certain economic development programs and initiatives.
