Bill > H2613

This bill directs the Executive Office of Public Safety and Security to conduct a comprehensive study on snow safety procedures, specifically focusing on the risks associated with heavy snowfall on building roofs and skylights. The study will evaluate the dangers posed by accumulated snow, explore strategies for snow removal from rooftops, and assess the potential benefits and costs of implementing identification markers on skylights of large buildings that would remain visible during heavy snowstorms. The office is required to complete the study and submit a detailed written report, including specific recommendations, to the clerks of the Massachusetts House of Representatives and Senate within 180 days of the act's effective date. By mandating this research, the bill aims to improve public safety by addressing potential hazards related to winter weather conditions and building infrastructure.
