AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Section 5 of Chapter 59 of the General Laws, which deals with property tax exemptions, by adding a new provision that allows for an exemption on real property located on a private road or way, limited to the reasonable cost of maintenance and improvements to that road or way. Property owners could apply for an abatement, which is a reduction in their property tax, if they believe the charge for road maintenance and improvements is more than what is properly due, by filing a petition with the board of assessors within the legally allowed timeframe.
