Bill Summary

Senate, Monday, June 15, 2015 – New draft (Senator Joyce) to Senate bill amending the town charter for the town of Randolph, (Senate, No. 24).

AI Summary

This bill proposes amendments to the town charter of Randolph, Massachusetts, primarily concerning the compensation of town council members and the structure of the town's licensing authority. Specifically, it outlines that starting January 1, 2016, town council members would receive an annual salary of $5,000 but would not be eligible for town benefits like health or dental insurance, though they could still participate in retirement systems. The bill also presents two alternative proposals for the licensing board: one that establishes a 7-member board composed of town officials (police chief, fire chief, building inspector, health inspector) and three town residents, and another that designates the town council itself as the licensing authority. The ultimate outcome of these changes would depend on voter approval of specific questions presented on the official ballot.
