AN ACT FURTHER REGULATING THE CONDUCT OF MUNICIPAL EMPLOYEES.
Whereas , The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to allow forthwith certain conduct by municipal employees, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:
Section 17 of chapter 268A of the General Laws is hereby amended by adding the following paragraph:-
This section shall not prevent a municipal employee from applying on behalf of anyone for a building, electrical, wiring, plumbing, gas fitting or septic system permit, nor from receiving compensation in relation to any such permit, unless such employee is employed by or provides services to the permit-granting agency or an agency that regulates the activities of the permit-granting agency.
