An Act relative to regional planning agencies

This bill amends state laws to clarify the retirement status of nine specific regional planning agencies in Massachusetts. It ensures these agencies remain members of the state retirement system and exempts them from having to reimburse the state board for past pension payments based on their service. The legislation also removes liability for any past-due contributions these agencies owe. Ultimately, the act provides financial protections and clarifies the retirement benefits for employees of these regional planning organizations.
