Bill Summary

Relative to authorizing local control of waste collection hours of operation. Municipalities and Regional Government.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 31A of Chapter 111 of the General Laws to authorize local boards of health to restrict the hours in which business, residential, or commercial garbage, offal, or other offensive substances may be collected in areas zoned for residential or commercial use. The bill also removes the language that previously restricted the ability of boards of health to regulate the collection of "business, commercial or" garbage, offal, or other offensive substances. This gives municipalities and regional governments more control over the hours of operation for waste collection in their respective areas.
