Bill > H4212

This bill authorizes the town of Lancaster to dissolve its animal control commission by repealing Chapter 179 of the Acts of 2004, which likely established or regulated the original animal control commission. The bill is straightforward, consisting of two sections: the first repeals the previous legislative act related to the animal control commission, and the second section specifies that the bill will take effect immediately upon its passage. This type of local legislation allows municipalities to modify their administrative structures and governance bodies, in this case providing Lancaster with the legal authority to disband its animal control commission. The bill appears to be a routine administrative measure that has received local approval, meaning the local community and government support the proposed change.
