This bill directs the Director of the Bureau of Parks and Lands to modify the deed for Montpelier, the General Henry Knox Museum in Thomaston, removing the requirement that the site be used for historic preservation and public education purposes. It also removes the reversion clause that would return the building and collections to the Bureau if the Friends of Montpelier do not continue to use them for public educational, historic, or cultural purposes. The Friends of Montpelier, a nonprofit corporation, received the historic site land, improvements, structures, and historical collections.
