AN ACT REGARDING MOTIONS AT THE TOWN OF SCITUATE ANNUAL FINANCIAL TOWN MEETING

Summary

The law adds a new rule for the Town of Scituate’s annual financial meeting: any motion that would raise or cut a council‑recommended appropriation by $10,000 or more must be submitted to the town treasurer with at least ten qualified voters’ signatures by May 15, and the notice must be published. The rule only applies to the regular June meeting, not special meetings, and it will only become permanent if town voters approve it in the November 3, 2026 election.
