H 3420 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act releasing certain land use restrictions held by the commonwealth in the city of Revere

This bill releases specific land use restrictions held by the Commonwealth on a parcel in Revere (Lot 6A), directly affecting the Festa family trust as the landowner. It removes restrictions limiting the parcel to parking only, preventing the landowner from using it to increase floor area for adjacent properties, and a reversion right. The Commonwealth must sell these restrictions at full market value, determined by an independent appraisal reviewed and approved by the Inspector General, with reports submitted to legislative committees. The landowner is responsible for all costs, including appraisals, surveys, and deed preparation.
