AI Summary
This bill amends Section 31A of Chapter 111 of the General Laws, which deals with public health. Specifically, it removes the phrase "business, commercial or" from a section of the law, and then inserts new language that prohibits cities and towns from allowing the collection of garbage, offal, or other offensive substances in areas zoned for business or commercial use if those areas are adjacent to residential neighborhoods, between the hours of 10:00 PM and 5:30 AM. This change aims to reduce noise and odor disturbances for residents living near commercial or business districts.
