AI Summary

This bill allows the town of Fairhaven to create a special fund to deposit proceeds from the repair, demolition, or making safe of dangerous, abandoned, unsafe, or uninhabitable structures or premises. The fund can be used, at the discretion of the town administrator in consultation with certain town officials, to secure, clear, make safe, repair, or demolish such structures without further appropriation, as long as the expenditures do not exceed the balance of the fund. Any interest earned on the fund will be treated as general fund revenue for the town, and any remaining balance at the end of a fiscal year will carry over to subsequent years.
