H 1541 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act amending chapter 235 of the acts of 2014

This bill requires members of Massachusetts housing and redevelopment authorities to complete mandatory training. Specifically, new members must finish a state-developed training program within 90 days of taking office, and all members must repeat training every 3 to 5 years. Failure to comply within these timeframes may be considered neglect of duty, potentially leading to removal proceedings. The bill directly affects all current and future members serving on these local housing authorities across the state.
