Bill > H4069

This bill aims to prevent certain vehicles from being towed, specifically those that are parked or standing and contain an unsupervised animal, which means an animal left alone without any supervision. The bill proposes to amend two sections of the General Laws: Section 22D of chapter 40 and Section 120D of chapter 266. The amendment to Section 22D would add a sentence stating that vehicles with unsupervised animals cannot be towed. The amendment to Section 120D would add a proviso, meaning a condition or exception, to the existing law, clarifying that vehicles with unsupervised animals cannot be removed from private property, whether it's a private way or improved or enclosed property. This legislation is being considered by the Judiciary committee.
