AI Summary
This bill aims to exempt certain farmers' markets from certain property taxes. Specifically, it amends the General Laws to consider a farmers' market, as defined by the Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources, as a "public purpose" for the purposes of property tax exemptions. This change means that eligible farmers' markets would be exempt from certain property taxes, which could help support and sustain these community-based agricultural marketplaces.
