An Act relative to regional tourism councils

This bill amends the Massachusetts Tourism Trust Fund to require that grants given to regional tourism councils be distributed by September 1 of the fiscal year they are allocated. The law directly affects regional tourism councils in the state by setting a specific deadline for receiving their funding. This change aims to ensure that these councils receive their allocated money in a timely manner to support local tourism initiatives. The provision does not create new funding but rather establishes a schedule for the release of existing funds.
