This bill amends the Second Class Township Code, specifically addressing mowing operations along township roads. It introduces a new section, Section 2302.1, which stipulates that townships are not required to use a "shadow vehicle" during mowing operations conducted by township employees or contractors. A shadow vehicle is defined as a vehicle that follows mobile mowing and maintenance activities within a township. However, the bill allows townships the option to voluntarily use a shadow vehicle if the board of supervisors deems it necessary.

The legislation aims to provide townships with greater flexibility in managing mowing operations by eliminating the mandatory requirement for shadow vehicles, which may reduce costs and streamline operations. The bill will take effect 60 days after its enactment.
