An Act to study establishment of, and definition of, a Middlesex Regional Commission

This bill establishes a temporary Middlesex Working Group to study the feasibility and structure of creating a permanent Middlesex Regional Commission for the county's 54 municipalities. The working group would be composed of one representative from each town and city, with the authority to consult experts and hold public meetings to gather input on regional needs. Its primary task is to evaluate how a new commission could address issues like overdevelopment, environmental protection, construction quality, and housing availability while balancing local community values. Upon completing its 12 to 24-month review, the group will submit a report with findings and recommendations to the state legislature regarding the establishment of this supervisory body.
