The bill titled "An Act relative to charter changes for the town of Longmeadow" proposes several amendments to the town's charter. It specifically amends Section 2-10 by removing subsection (c) and replacing it with new provisions that restrict town officers and employees from serving on the finance committee, with an exception for a member appointed to the Town's Capital Planning and Building Committee. Additionally, Section 3-2 is modified to designate the select board as the municipal light board, allowing them the option to appoint a separate municipal light board. Furthermore, Section 7-7 is revised to establish a Capital Planning and Building Committee (CPBC) with defined responsibilities, composition, and procedures for managing capital improvement projects.

The CPBC will consist of seven members, with six appointed by the select board and one from the finance committee, and will focus on reviewing and recommending adjustments to capital improvement projects based on community input. The bill outlines the committee's duties, including advising on future town building needs, incorporating climate adaptation efforts, and ensuring compliance with long-term maintenance plans. The act is set to take effect upon its passage, streamlining the governance and planning processes within the town of Longmeadow.
