Municipal Modernization Bill

On December 7, 2015, Governor Baker and Lt. Governor Polito announced An Act to Modernize Municipal Finance and Government--a municipal modernization bill that promotes smarter and more efficient government by updating obsolete laws, increasing local independence, streamlining state oversight, and providing municipalities with greater flexibility. Mayor Donna Holaday joined dozens of other mayors and city/town managers at the State House to show support for this important legislation.
