An Act amending Bridgewater town charter article II, legislative branch, term limits
This bill proposes amending Bridgewater's town charter to limit how many times a person can serve on the Town Council. It would cap both District Council and At-large Council positions at four terms or appointments combined, regardless of which specific seat a person holds. The amendment would not count terms shorter than 24 months and allows council members to switch between District and At-large roles without affecting their term limit count. This change requires approval from Bridgewater voters before it takes effect.
