Massachusetts S1277 allows homeowners and tenants to use clotheslines for drying laundry outdoors.

Massachusetts S1277 amends state law to ensure homeowners and tenants can use clotheslines for drying laundry outdoors. It prohibits associations from banning clotheslines and allows for reasonable restrictions on their placement and use. If existing rules prohibit clotheslines, associations must reconsider them upon request. Municipalities can vote on adopting these provisions, which take effect if approved by a majority of voters.
