Overview: Bill Number: HD 4450, Title: An Act authorizing the city of Quincy to enter into a lease extension to Quarry Hills Associates, Limited Partnership, Status: Introduced, Introduced: November 29, 2025
Purpose and Intent: This proposed bill would authorize the city of Quincy, Massachusetts to extend an existing lease agreement with Quarry Hills Associates, a private development company. The extension would allow Quarry Hills to continue operating a recreational facility on city-owned land.
Key Provisions:
- Grants the city of Quincy the authority to extend the current lease agreement with Quarry Hills Associates for an additional 25-year term
- Requires the city to conduct a public hearing and obtain approval from the city council before finalizing the lease extension
- Stipulates that the lease terms must include provisions for the continued public use and maintenance of the recreational facilities
Affected Parties and Impacts:
- Residents of Quincy will maintain access to the recreational amenities operated by Quarry Hills Associates, such as golf courses, hiking trails, and other outdoor activities
- Quarry Hills Associates will be able to continue its business operations on the city-owned land, providing economic benefits to the local community
- The city of Quincy will retain ownership of the land while generating revenue through the lease agreement with the private developer
Procedural and Timeline Considerations:
The bill has been introduced in the Massachusetts state legislature but has not yet been assigned a status. If passed, the legislation would authorize the city of Quincy to proceed with the lease extension, which would then need to go through the standard municipal approval process, including a public hearing and city council vote.
