Product Description
Product Description
The ability of municipalities to legislate and act is largely defined by the Home Rule Amendment to the Massachusetts Constitution. The Home Rule Amendment empowers cities and towns to create charters and legislate while delineating the contours and limits of this power.
Join our experts as we examine the practical aspects of creating and amending charters. We also examine the old and new of Home Rule issues: including Boston’s recent passage of a rent control ordinance that is now under consideration by the Legislature.
