A report of the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs (under Section 5A(b)(3) of Chapter 3 of the General Laws) submitting its 2025 report on the status of funds authorized in lieu of replacement land pursuant to open space preservation in the Commonwealth

This bill requires the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs to submit a report by December 31, 2025, detailing the status of funds used for open space preservation in Massachusetts instead of replacing land. The report will explain how these funds are managed, including whether they are held in existing accounts like a CPA open space account. This procedural bill does not change current law but ensures transparency in the use of these funds for conservation efforts.
