Amendment S.2970
S.2970 authorizes the transfer of two state-owned parcels in Brockton to specific entities for community development. It directs the commissioner to convey land to Catholic Charitable Bureau for affordable housing (for households at or below 80% area median income) and a community services center, with a 2030 deadline for completion. The bill also allows conveyance of another parcel to the city of Brockton for redevelopment, requiring the city to share net proceeds equally with the state (or at least 40% to the state). Both transfers occur for $1 consideration and include strict usage requirements, with land reverting to the state if purposes are not maintained.
