This bill authorizes the commissioner of capital asset management and maintenance to transfer specific parcels of land in the town of Norton to the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT). The first section allows for the transfer of approximately 6.927 acres of land, currently used for wildlife management, to MassDOT for its statutory purposes. The commissioner, in consultation with the commissioner of fish and game, will determine the exact boundaries of this parcel. Additionally, the bill stipulates that MassDOT must obtain necessary approvals from the Federal Highway Administration and transfer a separate 7.5-acre parcel to the commonwealth for conservation and public recreation purposes.

Furthermore, the bill outlines that MassDOT will be responsible for all costs associated with these land transfers, including engineering, surveys, and other related expenses, without requiring any monetary consideration for the transfers. It also mandates that as part of the future development of the first parcel, MassDOT must design and construct access roads or amenities to facilitate public access to the second parcel. The bill is declared an emergency law, emphasizing the urgency of the land transfer for public convenience.
