AI Summary

This bill authorizes the Commissioner of the Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance to grant permanent and temporary easements over portions of a parcel of land in the town of Lanesborough for the purposes of repairing, reconstructing, operating, maintaining, and/or improving the Narragansett Avenue bridge over Lake Pontoosuc. The bill requires the commissioner to consider mitigating impacts to the public lands, to commission an independent appraisal of the easement values, and to ensure the easements are used solely for the authorized purposes.
