Bill overview
This bill proposes changes to the residency restrictions for level three sex offenders in Massachusetts. Currently, these offenders are prohibited from living within 2,000 feet of schools, parks, and playgrounds. The bill seeks to increase this distance to 3,000 feet, aiming to enhance public safety by limiting proximity to vulnerable populations. It also includes provisions for reporting requirements and potential revocation of residency permits if restrictions are violated.
