An Act authorizing Bridgewater town charter amendment for gender neutral language

HD 5198 amends Bridgewater's town charter to replace gendered pronouns like "his" with gender-neutral terms like "their" in several sections. This directly affects the town's official charter documents, updating language related to the council president's role, councilor prohibitions, and budget meeting procedures. The key mechanism is a simple textual change to ensure inclusive language in the charter, without altering any substantive policies or responsibilities. This is a procedural update to modernize the town's governing document, not a new policy.
