The Attorney General’s Office has published a Q&A to provide answers to frequently asked questions we have received regarding the MBTA Communities Law. Please find it here: 

https://www.mass.gov/info-details/mbta-communities-law-qa

April 23, 2024 Update from Town Counsel, Robert W. Galvin, Esq.:

"I conferred with Margaret Hurley, Esq. who is the Assistant Attorney General in charge of the Municipal Law Unit as to its next steps. 

They were disappointed to hear that Marshfield did not pass the MBTA communities bylaw. They were also interested to know why people were opposed and I related what I heard.     

I did offer the points of view espoused by many that the state was overbearing in acting to require this where the town has made significant progress towards affordable housing. 

At this point, they do not intend to bring a suit against Marshfield in the immediate future in the hope that Marshfield will reconsider its position in the fall even after the Milton case is decided. They will still consider us in interim compliance until 12/31/24.     

If we are not in compliance by that date with a new bylaw EOHLC will send us a letter that we are no longer in compliance and that will be followed by a lawsuit to compel compliance."
