The National Conference of State Legislatures has compiled a table of actions that states across the country are employing to solve their budget puzzles. The list contains measures on both the revenue and spending side. You can find the table here
I find it interesting that many other states have proposed ...
... gasoline tax hikes as did our Governor.
Few states have even proposed raising personal income tax. New York being a notable exception. I would have preferred that option in our Commonwealth.
Layoffs were widespread across all categories of government.
The New York Times has more on which states are hardest hit here

I checked the town website and found that the Bakerville Rd Rest Home is indeed owned by one of the Lincoln Park Developers. The building certainly is a blight to the neighborhood with exposed broken windows and the obvious appearance of desertion. We do know that Lara Stone recused herself from the Lincoln Park Overlay District due to a conflict of interest. This of course was a little late since she had already voted to move the development project forward as a Select Board member. Does anyone know what the plans are for this property?
