House Schedules Local Acts and Passes Linfield Water Supply Bill to Engrossment
Summary
The House scheduled several local bills for further consideration and passed House Bill 972, authorizing the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority to supply water to the Linfield Center Water District, to be engrossed.
The Massachusetts House of Representatives scheduled several local bills for further consideration and passed House Bill 972, an act authorizing the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority to supply water to the Linfield Center Water District within the town of Linfield, sending the water bill to be engrossed.
The Committee on Steering Policy and Scheduling reported that several local House bills be scheduled, including House No. 2270 (authorizing the Town of Avon to appoint a town clerk), House No. 2275 (authorizing the City of Revere to pay a sum to Denise Menacher, widow of school committee member Anthony Menacher) and House No. 4004 (validating the results of the special election held in the town of Hardwick on Jan. 18, 2025). The committee recommended the matters be scheduled for House consideration.
Separately, House Bill 972, an act authorizing the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority to supply water to the Linfield Center Water District within the town of Linfield, was read and passed to be engrossed by voice vote. The transcript records the typical floor phrasing — the ayes have it — for passage to engrossment. The House recessed briefly following the engrossment action.
Next steps: the scheduled local bills will be considered at subsequent readings; House Bill 972 will proceed through the engrossment process and additional readings as required by House rules.
