Bill > H3681

This bill amends Chapter 140 of Massachusetts General Laws by adding a new section (67B) that prohibits dealers with auction or motor vehicle dealer licenses from storing or parking motor vehicles or trailers with dealer registration plates on public ways where residential dwellings are located. The restriction applies regardless of whether the dealer, licensee, agent, or plate holder resides in the area, and applies even if the residential street is currently unoccupied. Any person violating this new provision will be subject to the fines and penalties outlined in section 69 of the same chapter. The purpose of the bill appears to be preventing dealers from using residential streets as storage areas for their commercial vehicles, which could potentially disrupt neighborhood parking and aesthetics.
