An Act relative to bidding requirements for certain affordable projects in the town of Westborough

This bill exempts the Westborough Affordable Housing Trust and its related entities from standard town procurement laws when planning or building projects at 6 Beach Street and 45 High Street Extension. The exemption allows these groups to handle contracts for design, construction, and maintenance without following the usual bidding processes required of public agencies, though they must still pay prevailing wages to workers. Additionally, if these properties are later sold or leased to a redevelopment corporation or a nonprofit, the transaction must follow specific state laws regarding urban redevelopment. The changes apply only to these two specific locations in Westborough and take effect immediately upon passing.
