Plain-language change summary

The bill has been updated to include specific requirements for how the town of Woodbury must use the land being conveyed to it. The new amendment emphasizes that the town must use the land for a commemorative memorial green and includes conditions that would result in the land reverting back to the state if these conditions aren't met. This change is significant because it ensures the land will be used for its intended purpose, honoring veterans, rather than being repurposed or sold off.
