This bill proposes to extend the limitations on municipal bylaws under 24 V.S.A. § 4413 to State-funded institutions and facilities and to institutions and facilities regulated by a public institution that serve a critical public function that, if interrupted, would place individuals at risk of harm, disrupt access to vital supports, or disrupt the continuity of legally mandated services.
