House schedules bill allowing MWRA to supply Lynnfield Center Water District and orders it to third reading
Summary
The House scheduled and advanced House Bill 972, which authorizes the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority to supply water to the Lynnfield Center Water District, moving the bill to a third reading after suspending rules for consideration.
The House scheduled and advanced a bill authorizing the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority to supply water to the Lynnfield Center Water District and ordered the measure to a third reading.
The Committee on Steering, Policy and Scheduling recommended that House Bill 972, authorizing the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority to supply water to the Lynnfield Center Water District within the town of Lynnfield, be scheduled for consideration by the House. The recommendation appeared on the floor during a committee report.
Representative Hecht of Watertown moved to suspend Rule 7A to consider the bill; the motion was adopted after the ayes were recorded. The clerk read the bill title into the record as "An act authorizing the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority to supply water to the Lynnfield Center Water District within the town of Lynnfield. House Number 972." The House then voted to order the bill to a third reading, with the clerk announcing the ayes had it and the bill was ordered to a third reading.
The House took these procedural steps on the floor; the record does not include substantive debate on the bill's terms or any amendments during the segment. Further committee work or third-reading debate could produce changes before final passage.
