Bill Summary
Relative to municipal light plants. Telecommunications, Utilities and Energy.
AI Summary
This bill amends the existing Massachusetts law to allow municipal light plants, rather than just boards of selectmen or town councils, to appoint members to municipal light plant committees. It also expands the authority of municipal light plants to provide services and assistance to other public utilities, both within and outside the Commonwealth, and to sell or lease related equipment and merchandise. Additionally, it specifies that employees providing such services will have the same rights and privileges as if performing duties within the scope of their municipal light plant employment.
