Bill > H2351

This bill authorizes Barnstable County to convey specific parcels of land located at 0 County Road and 100 Dr. Julius Kelley Lane in the town of Bourne, Massachusetts. The parcels are identified as lot 7 on land court plan no. 24204C and lot 8 on land court plan no. 24204D, and are currently subject to an existing conservation restriction registered with the Barnstable Land Court Registry District. The bill further allows the town of Bourne, which currently holds the conservation restriction, to assign or transfer that restriction to a qualified entity as part of the property transfer process. The proposed transfer is being done in accordance with Article 97 of the Massachusetts Constitution, which provides special protections for public lands and natural resources. The legislation appears to be a local matter that has received approval from the town, and it will take effect immediately upon passage. The bill represents a specific real estate transaction between a county and a municipal government, likely facilitating a local land management or development goal.
