Bill > H4768

This bill authorizes the Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance to convey several parcels of land in Brockton through three separate transactions. First, the division may sell a parcel near Massasoit Community College to the Catholic Charitable Bureau for $1, with the specific purpose of developing affordable housing (defined as housing where 100% of units are accessible to households earning 80% or less of the area median income) and a community multi-services center. If the Catholic Charitable Bureau does not complete the purchase by December 31, 2030, the division can sell the property through a competitive bidding process. Second, the division may convey another parcel to the city of Brockton for redevelopment, also for $1, with the stipulation that any net proceeds from future sales would be split equally between the city and the commonwealth. Third, the division may transfer portions of specific land parcels to the city of Brockton at no cost to improve vehicle safety and access to Massasoit Community College. The bill includes provisions requiring the grantee to cover all conveyance costs, and mandates that any proceeds from these transactions be deposited into a trust for Massasoit Community College to fund campus capital improvements. All conveyances would be made without warranties and subject to specific conditions about future land use.
