SD 599 Massachusetts Senate · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to appropriate notice for changes to Veterans’ district agreements

SD 599 amends Massachusetts law to require towns and cities in veterans' service districts to provide at least 180 days' written notice before withdrawing from the district. This applies to any constituent city or town voting to leave a district formed under Chapter 115, requiring the vote to occur no fewer than 180 days before the fiscal year ends. The bill directly affects municipalities participating in shared veterans' services districts by changing the notice period for withdrawal. It does not alter the district's operations or services, only the procedural requirement for exiting the agreement. (Bill SD 599, Section 10 amendment)
