An Act relative to higher education capital investment in gateway cities

This bill restricts state funding for higher education construction projects unless they meet specific location or timing requirements. It requires that projects either began construction before July 1, 2021, or are situated in gateway cities or adjacent municipalities. Additionally, any project within a gateway city must be located within 2,000 feet of the city hall and 500 feet of public transportation once finished. The law aims to direct capital investment toward areas that support transit access and urban centers.
