An Act authorizing municipalities to use funds for flood control infrastructure and floodplain preservation

This bill amends state laws to allow Massachusetts municipalities to use specific funds for flood control infrastructure and floodplain preservation. It permits these projects only if they are historical or recreational developments created before the year 2000. Additionally, the legislation restricts the use of these funds for regular maintenance and general operations. The change directly affects local towns and cities by expanding their ability to finance and restore older flood management systems.
