AN ACT AUTHORIZING THE TOWN OF WILBRAHAM TO EXCHANGE A CERTAIN PARCEL OF LAND HELD FOR CONSERVATION PURPOSES.
Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to provide forthwith for the department of capital asset management and maintenance to release a certain easement in the cities of Malden and Revere, 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:

(a) Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary but subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (g) of section 16 of chapter 30B of the General Laws, the town of Wilbraham may transfer from the conservation commission to the board of selectmen for the purpose of conveyance, the care, custody, management and control of a portion of a parcel of land located at 9V Cedar Oak drive in the town of Wilbraham.
