Bill Summary

For legislation relative to municipal impact statements. State Administration and Regulatory Oversight.

AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 30A of the General Laws to require state agencies to provide a brief statement describing any proposed administrative action that could have a significant financial impact on municipalities. The local government advisory committee, the division of local mandates, and the department of housing and community development would then have 21 days to review the statement and notify the agency if they believe the proposed action could have a significant impact. If they identify potential for significant impact, the agency must convene a meeting with these stakeholders to discuss the impact. Agencies must also designate a responsible party to ensure compliance with this new requirement.
