AN ACT RELATING TO TOWNS AND CITIES -- DAM MANAGEMENT DISTRICTS

Summary

The bill gives the Pascoag Reservoir and Wilson’s Reservoir Dam Management Districts protection from civil lawsuits for any tort on the lake beds they own or lease. It also lets the towns of Burrillville and Glocester exempt those lake‑bed properties from real and personal property taxes and requires Burrillville to collect district fees like municipal taxes. The changes aim to ease financial and legal burdens on the districts that manage local water resources.
