Homeowners shouldn’t subsidize luxury landlords. Let’s tax large, income-producing high-rises differently than single-family homes and condos—and give real relief to the people.
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu said that property taxes for the average single-family home in the city are poised to jump 13 percent, marking what would be the second double-digit increase in as many fiscal years for homeowners.
Property taxes on Boston single-family homes set to spike 13 percent in second fiscal year of double-digit increase - The Boston Globe
The prospect of a second year of double digit property tax increases for homeowners also prolongs a nearly two year battle Wu has fought with the state Senate over a bill that would mitigate that spike.

Our scheduled SNAP payment went out this morning, so families who missed earlier payments should now have funds available on their cards ready to buy food. We’re reviewing what the latest court ruling means for those expecting benefits next week.
