S 2857 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act establishing appointed positions of district clerk and district treasurer for the Raynham center water district

This law changes how the Raynham Center Water District selects its administrative staff by allowing the board of water commissioners to appoint a district clerk and a district treasurer instead of having them elected. The appointed officials do not need to live in the district and can serve in the same role for up to three years at a time. This change only takes effect after the current elected officials finish their existing terms, ensuring a smooth transition to the new appointment system.
