Bill > S2126

This bill authorizes the Massachusetts Commissioner of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance to lease or enter into agreements with the Riverside Boat Club of Cambridge for a reconfigured parcel of land, allowing the club to continue its historical rowing program and maintain its boathouse. The bill overrides existing legal restrictions and allows the commissioner, in consultation with the Commissioner of Conservation and Recreation, to lease a specific parcel of land described in a plan dated July 29, 2024, which includes the land and adjacent water area currently used by the boat club. The commissioner is also empowered to make minor revisions to the land plan and must file the final plan with the Middlesex southern district registry of deeds. This legislation builds upon chapter 65 of the acts of 2010 and provides the necessary legal authorization for the continued use and potential reconfiguration of the boat club's current location, ensuring the preservation of its long-standing rowing program in Cambridge.
