Acushnet removes one charter section

The law deletes one section of Acushnet’s town charter. It removes Section 3-1-2 from the charter on file with the state archivist. No other parts of the charter change, and no new rules are added. It takes effect upon passage. The impact for residents and town staff depends on what that deleted section covered.
