Bill Summary

For legislation to authorize municipalities to enforce snow removal penalties for sidewalks abutting privately-owned property near certain state roadways. Municipalities and Regional Government.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 21(3) of Chapter 40 of the General Laws to authorize municipalities to enforce snow removal penalties for sidewalks abutting privately-owned property near certain state roadways, including the state highway system of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation and the parkways and public ways of the Department of Conservation and Recreation. The enforcement can be undertaken by local municipalities, with the revenue to be split between the municipality and the relevant state department through a memorandum of understanding, unless the municipal by-law is clearly inconsistent with a rule or regulation promulgated by either of the state departments.
