An Act authorizing the town of Lexington to allow remote participation at town meetings

This bill authorizes the town of Lexington to allow residents to participate in town meetings remotely or through a hybrid format combining in-person and online attendance. It permits the use of video or telephone conferencing platforms and ensures that any decisions made during these remote sessions carry the same legal weight as those made in person. Additionally, the legislation allows the town's select board to switch a meeting to a fully remote format if an emergency makes physical town facilities unavailable.
