Re: Lexington Special Town Meeting of April 25,2016 - Case#8044
Warrant Article#4 (General)
Dear Ms. Rice:
Article 4 - We approve Article 4 from the Lexington Special Town Meeting of April 25,
2016.
Note: Pursuant to G.L. c. 40, §32, neither general nor zoning by-laws take effect unless the Town
has first satisfied the posting/publishing requirements of that statute. Once this statutory
duty is fulfilled, (1) general by-laws and amendments take effect on the date these posting
and publishing requirements are satisfied unless a later effective date is prescribed in the
by-law, and (2) zoning by-laws and amendments are deemed to have taken effect from the
date they were approved by the Town Meeting, unless a later effective date is prescribed in
the by-law.
Very truly yours,
MAURA HEALEY
