Bill Summary

Relative to the possession of marijuana on certain public property in cities and towns. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 32L of Chapter 94C, which likely pertains to controlled substances, by adding a provision that exempts individuals possessing marijuana from certain restrictions when they are on specific public properties within a municipality. These exempted locations include schools, school yards, playgrounds, public libraries, and any land, building, or vehicle owned by the municipality. This means that while marijuana possession might be restricted elsewhere, it would be permissible in these designated public areas within cities and towns.
