Governor McKee has decided NOT to sign the state's 2026 budget over new taxes and fees it contains (the new revenue going toward things like transit and healthcare amid a drop in federal funding). It will still become law, as he is not vetoing it.

If you’re seeing a fireball in the sky in Somerset and Fall River this morning… no reason to panic. Somerset PD advised residents a gas company was conducting maintenance and inspections this week. This flame is part of the testing of a flare system.

New Bedford Mayor Jon Mitchell has proposed zoning changes aimed to create the city's second "transit-oriented development" district. If approved, it would allow more dense, mixed-use buildings centered around the Acushnet Ave. MBTA station, which will see South Coast Rail service start next month.
