Bill > S2329

This bill authorizes the city of Gardner to convey a parcel of land known as Stump Pond to the Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance (DCAMM), which will then be placed under the care and control of the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) for conservation and recreation purposes. In exchange, DCAMM, in consultation with DCR, can convey two other parcels of land that are part of the Gardner Heritage State Park to the city of Gardner for general municipal purposes. The bill requires independent appraisals of the fair market value and value in use of the parcels, with the city of Gardner responsible for all costs and expenses related to the transaction. If the value of the parcels conveyed to the city exceeds the value of the Stump Pond parcel, the city must provide additional land, an interest in land, or funding to the DCR equal to the difference in value.
