Header format changed from 'No. M-9' to 'BILL AS PASSED BY THE HOUSE AND SENATE H.956' with line numbering added throughout.

Introductory metadata block added in the passed version, including sponsor (Representative Stone of Burlington), committee referral, and subject classification.

Governor signature date (May 26, 2026) and internal tracking number (VT LEG #390174 v.1) removed from the passed version, as these are only relevant to the enacted version.

A new introductory block was added identifying the bill as introduced by Representative Stone of Burlington, with committee referral fields, a subject classification (municipal and county government; municipal charters; City of Burlington; amendment), and a statement of purpose summarizing that the bill approves a charter amendment to establish the Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging.

The original two-line title block ('An act relating to approval of an amendment...') was replaced by the new introductory block above.

The bill was assigned act number M-9 upon enactment.

Governor signature date of May 26, 2026 was recorded on the enacted version.

Removed introductory metadata including sponsor name (Rep. Stone), committee referral line, subject classification, and statement of purpose block that are standard in introduced bills but dropped once a bill passes a chamber.

Header changed from 'BILL AS INTRODUCED' to 'AS PASSED BY HOUSE' and internal line numbering was resequenced to reflect the shorter document after metadata removal.
