Massachusetts S2511 changes how vacancies in the office of district councilor in Boston are filled.
Massachusetts S2511 modifies the process for filling vacancies in the office of district councilor in Boston. If a vacancy occurs in 2025, it will be filled by the person elected to the office of district city councillor in the regular municipal election on November 4, 2025, rather than through a special municipal election. The elected individual must take and subscribe the required oaths and will serve until the end of their elected term. The act's provisions are severable, meaning if any part is found unconstitutional, the rest remains in effect.
