H 3368 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act establishing a special commission to investigate and study the feasibility of establishing a municipal building financing authority

HD 232 establishes a 13-member commission to study whether a municipal building financing authority should be created in Massachusetts. The commission will examine funding sources, innovative financing methods for municipal projects (like town halls, public safety facilities, and senior centers), and define potential powers for such an authority. It includes state officials, legislative leaders, and a municipal association representative, and must submit findings and recommendations to the legislature by December 31, 2023. This bill does not create the authority itself but sets the process for evaluating its feasibility.
