AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 140 of the General Laws to allow municipalities to purchase motor vehicles at auctions. Specifically, it adds a new section, Section 57A, which mandates that any person or company conducting auctions for the sale of motor vehicles must permit agents representing a municipality to attend these auctions and buy vehicles. This provision aims to make it easier for municipalities to acquire vehicles, potentially for their own use or for resale, by ensuring they have access to the auction market.
