The 193rd General Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts

AN ACT AUTHORIZING THE DIVISION OF CAPITAL ASSET MANAGEMENT AND MAINTENANCE TO CONVEY CERTAIN LAND TO THE TOWN OF SALISBURY.

Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to provide forthwith for the conveyance of certain land to the town of Salisbury, 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 1. Notwithstanding sections 40E to 40J, inclusive, of chapter 7 of the General Laws or any other general or special law to the contrary, the commissioner of capital asset management and maintenance, for nominal consideration, shall waive and release the reversionary interest reserved by the commonwealth pursuant to chapter 510 of the acts of 1959 on a certain parcel of land that was conveyed to the town of Salisbury by deed recorded with the southern district of Essex county registry of deeds in book 4725, page 566. The parcel may be used for such purposes or disposed of as the town deems appropriate.

SECTION 2. Notwithstanding sections 40E to 40J, inclusive, of chapter 7 of the General Laws, the commonwealth may, by and through the commissioner of capital asset management and maintenance and the secretary of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, convey to the town of Salisbury, for nominal consideration, a certain portion of land in the town of Salisbury containing 44,447 square feet and shown as “Parcel A” on a plan entitled “PLAN OF LAND in SALISBURY, MASSACHUSETTS SHOWING LAND TO BE CONVEYED BY THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS TO THE TOWN OF SALISBURY” dated May 19, 2009, and prepared by Northstar Land Survey Services. The parcel may be used for such purposes or disposed of as the town deems appropriate.

SECTION 3. The town of Salisbury shall pay for all costs of the survey and the deed or other instruments to effect the waiver, release and conveyance authorized in this act, as deemed necessary by the commissioner of capital asset management and maintenance.
