The bill amends the charter of the Harrisville Fire District in Burrillville, validating and ratifying amendments approved by the electors on November 19, 2024. Key changes include reducing the operating committee from seven to five members, with one member elected for a three-year term at the first annual meeting following the passage of the charter, while the remaining members will complete their previously elected terms. The budget approval process is modified to allow the committee to increase budget items by up to 5% without prior approval, an increase from the previous limit of 2.5%.

Additionally, the bill updates the notice requirements for meetings, specifying that notices must be published in a weekly newspaper or one with a digital platform. It establishes that a quorum for the annual meeting or any special district meeting consists of ten electors. The operating committee is required to provide a budget by August 22nd each year.

The act also emphasizes the district's authority to provide various emergency services, enter contracts related to taxes or fees on electricity generation facilities, issue bonds, and maintain tax-exempt status while ensuring compliance with state laws regarding open meetings and public records. The act will take effect upon passage.
