The Massachusetts Senate during its session approved final passage of House No. 4009, authorizing the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority to provide sewer services to a parcel of land in the town of Sharon, and passed House No. 4521, which would establish a sick‑leave bank for Kathleen Rodrigue, an employee of the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.

The measures were taken without extended debate. For House No. 4009 the chamber conducted a required standing vote tied to adoption of an emergency preamble; the presiding officer announced a count of two members voting in the affirmative and zero in the negative. House No. 4521 was read and "passed to be engrossed," with the presiding officer saying, "the ayes have it." The record in the transcript does not specify individual member names for either roll or voice votes.

House No. 4009: An act authorizing the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA) to provide sewer services to a certain parcel of land in the town of Sharon. The Senate conducted a standing count required for final passage when an emergency preamble is adopted; the presiding officer announced the count as two in favor, zero opposed.

House No. 4521: Enact establishing a sick‑leave bank for Kathleen Rodrigue, employee of the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. The bill was read a third time and "passed to be engrossed," with the presiding officer noting the ayes. No roll‑call tally or individual votes were given in the transcript for this item.

Procedural notes: Earlier in the session the presiding officer instructed that those voting in the affirmative should stand to be counted. Later, a point was raised that the Senate doubted the presence of a quorum; court officers were directed to secure the doors and ascertain a quorum. The presiding officer announced the Senate would adjourn forthwith and meet again on Thursday next at 11 a.m.

No amendments, movers, or seconds were recorded in the transcript excerpts provided, and the transcript does not list named vote records for either bill.
