An act relating to approval of amendments to the charter of the Town of Bennington concerning the Town Manager

The 'As Passed' version adds legislative metadata including the names of introducing representatives (Greer, Corcoran, Morrissey, Nigro of Bennington), committee referral information, a subject line, and a statement of purpose explaining the contract-based exception to the Town Manager removal notice requirement.

The 'As Enacted' version includes the governor's signature date (April 20, 2026) and the M-7 bill number designation, which are absent from the 'As Passed' version since those are added after legislative passage.

Header changed from House bill format (with sponsors, committee referral, and statement of purpose) to standard enacted law format with 'No. M-7' designation and a concise title.

Standard enactment language added: 'It is hereby enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Vermont.'

Governor's signature date (April 20, 2026) was added to the enacted version.

Introductory metadata including sponsor names, committee referral, date field, subject line, and statement of purpose were removed, which is standard formatting when a bill passes.

Added sponsor information listing Representatives Greer, Corcoran, Morrissey, and Nigro of Bennington

Added committee referral line, date field, subject line, and statement of purpose as standard legislative metadata
