The bill proposes a restructuring of the Town of Ludlow's Recreation Department, integrating it into the Parks & Recreation Division of the Department of Public Works. The Director of Public Works will oversee this new division, assuming all authority previously held over other divisions. As part of this transition, the elected and appointed offices of the Recreation Department, including the Recreation Commission, will be abolished, and the terms of current officeholders will be terminated. However, existing employees of the Recreation Department will be transitioned to the Parks & Recreation Division, and the current Recreation Commissioners will be appointed by the Select Board to serve the remainder of their terms.

Additionally, the Select Board will gain the authority to appoint and remove the Parks & Recreation Division Director, who will manage daily operations under the supervision of the Public Works Director. The bill ensures that all existing contracts and liabilities will remain unaffected by this restructuring, with the Parks & Recreation Division recognized as the lawful successor to the former Recreation Department. The act will take effect immediately upon passage.
