AI Summary
This bill authorizes the town of Charlton to impose an additional 3-cent-per-gallon excise tax on the sale of gasoline and diesel fuel within the town. The revenue from this excise tax will be deposited into a newly established Public Way Maintenance Fund, which can only be used for the repair, maintenance, and upkeep of town roads and bridges. The bill requires the town to submit the proposal for acceptance to the qualified voters at the next regular municipal election, and the excise tax will only take effect if a majority of the votes cast are in the affirmative.
