For legislation relative to increased access to safe swimming. Education.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend the School Building Grant Program Regulations in Massachusetts to allow for reimbursement for the construction or renovation of a swimming pool at a school. This reimbursement would be available to schools located in municipalities that meet specific criteria: they must have a population between 35,000 and 250,000 people, a median household income lower than the average for the entire state, and a rate of residents holding a bachelor's degree or higher that is also below the state average. The Massachusetts School Building Authority, which oversees these grants, would be responsible for implementing this change under existing legal authority.
