Bill > S1935

This bill authorizes the town of Nantucket to transfer, sell, or otherwise dispose of specific parcels of land currently held for open space, recreational, or conservation purposes. These lands are to be conveyed to either the Nantucket Islands Land Bank or the Madaket Conservation Trust, also for open space, recreational, or conservation purposes. This action is permitted under Article 97 of the Amendments to the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, which generally protects such lands but allows for specific legislative exceptions. The bill outlines the specific assessor's map and parcel numbers for the lands involved in these transfers, and any disposition will be subject to terms and conditions deemed appropriate by the Board of Selectmen, potentially including the reservation of restrictions and easements.
