AN ACT TO AMEND THE CHARTER OF THE TOWN OF LAUREL RELATING TO THE POWER TO BORROW MONEY AND ISSUE BONDS.

Summary

The bill changes the Town of Laurel’s charter to streamline bond issuance for amounts up to $17 million, allowing the council to approve such borrowing by a simple council resolution instead of a public hearing and special election. It retains the current detailed process—including resident and property‑owner votes—for any borrowing above that limit. The goal is to speed financing for municipal projects while preserving oversight for larger debt.
