An Act authorizing the commissioner of capital asset management and maintenance to transfer certain parcels of land in the town of Norton

This bill authorizes the transfer of two adjacent land parcels in the town of Norton between state agencies to resolve a title issue involving federal highway interests. Under the legislation, the Department of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance will transfer approximately 6.9 acres currently used for wildlife management to the Department of Transportation, while the Department of Transportation will simultaneously transfer about 7.5 acres to the Department of Fish and Game for conservation purposes. The Department of Transportation is required to fund all costs associated with the land exchanges and must ensure that future development of the transferred property includes a roadway or paved access to provide public access to the conservation land.
