地方市鎮自訂酒牌數量上限構想 跌出預算案

           (Boston Orange   編譯)麻州州長奚莉 Healey)在發表州情咨文時才說了要讓地方市鎮享有自行決定酒牌發放上限的權利,今(22)日卻傳出她決定在遞交的2025會計年度預算案中,省略這一條文。

                    奚莉州長原本要讓地方市鎮有權自行決定加稅,把酒店住宿、汽車消費,餐飲等的稅率,加到最高33%的程度,以幫助地方市鎮充實財庫。該法案還打算讓遷就新冠病毒疫情所訂製,餐廳及企業須遵循的一些規定,變成永久性的要求。

                22日下午,州長和參眾議會議長開聯席會議後,卻傳出了奚莉州長在遞交預算案給參眾兩會審查時,不會包括讓市鎮決定自己酒牌數額的這一條文。

                波士頓環球報稱,州長發言人Karissa Hand強調州長仍支持原有的想法,只是在遞交提案時,需要把文字修飾得精確些。

               波士頓市是最積極的推動擴大可發放數額城市,以平衡白人社區最容易獲得酒牌的不平衡狀態。

                當奚莉州長上週五宣佈這一提案時,包括波士頓市在內的地方官員都額手稱慶。波士頓市長吳弭的發言人說,目前的系統讓酒牌集中在幾個區域,傷害了城市的經濟及社區的活力。

               麻州參議會議長Karen Spika表示,她對酒牌地方自治並無意見,眾議會議長Ron Mariano 並未直接回應相關問題。 (更新標題)

Healey-Driscoll Administration Announces New Affordable Housing Development Across the State
 

26 projects in 19 communities supported by state funding and tax credits 

 

BOSTON – Less than a week after her State of the Commonwealth address in which she vowed to tackle rising housing costs, Governor Maura Healey today committed resources to support the production and preservation of more than 1,900 housing units in 19 communities across the state. 

Gov. Healey, Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll and Secretary of Housing and Livable Communities Ed Augustus joined state Sen. Liz Miranda and state Representative Samantha Montaño in Jamaica Plain to celebrate the Blessed Sacrament Church historic adaptive reuse project and to announce subsidies and Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) support for several affordable housing projects across the state. 

 

“These housing projects are a great example of why we expanded the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit in our tax cuts bill,” said Governor Healey. “From a church transformed into mixed-use mixed-income housing in Boston to the re-use of a vacant nursing home as affordable rental housing in Northampton, these funds will make it possible for thousands of Massachusetts residents to afford a home. We look forward to continuing to work to pass the Affordable Homes Act this year to create much-needed housing across all income levels in the state.” 

 

Last fall, as part of a $1 billion tax relief signed by the governor, the Administration raised the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit to $60 million annually – a $20 million increase over the previous year.  

“We are expanding housing opportunities so more people can live, work and stay in Massachusetts,” said Lieutenant Governor Driscoll. “This is just one piece of the Healey-Driscoll Administration’s strategy to increase our housing supply and lower costs for hard-working Massachusetts residents.”  

 

The projects include:  

· Residences at the Park – Athol 

· 135 Dudley Street – Boston 

· 775 Huntington – Boston 

· Blessed Sacrament – Boston 

· Mildred Hailey 3 – Boston 

· NUBA Apartments – Boston 

· Thatcher Apartments – Brockton 

· Clifton Place – Cambridge 

· Jackson Place – Cambridge 

· Sacred Heart – Cambridge 

· 4th at Broadway – Chelsea  

· 25 Garvey Street – Everett 

· Franklin Ridge Senior Housing – Franklin 

· Library Commons 2 – Holyoke 

· Prospect Place – Northampton 

· Southern Tier – Oak Bluffs  

· Schoolhouse Apartments – Rockland 

· The Exchange 4%/9% - Salem 

· 24 Webster Avenue – Somerville 

· Plaza Apartments – South Hadley 

· Residences at the Vault – Springfield 

· Baldwinville School – Templeton 

· Residences at Lawrence Hill – Wellfleet 

· WCG Homes – Worcester 

 

“These projects, which will now be built as a result of the increase to the Low-Income Housing Tax Credits, are a direct result of the governor’s tax relief bill,” said Secretary Augustus. “The funding of these projects is proof that housing production for all of our communities is a top priority for the Healey-Driscoll Administration. The governor's Affordable Homes Act will soon fund even more, much needed, affordable housing in the commonwealth.”  

 

Included in today’s announcement are two projects that will serve highly vulnerable populations.  

· Located in Lynn, Solimine House will provide 150 affordable senior housing units with a strong health care link. 

· Located in Boston, 900 Morrissey Boulevard will provide 99 single-room occupancy units, with extensive support services, to chronically homeless individuals in a now-vacant hotel.  

 

“Pennrose is honored to be entrusted by the Hyde Square Task Force to preserve this incredible historic asset with them and to create performance space for the community that fulfills their mission.  We are incredible grateful to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the City of Boston for their commitment, dedication and resources to make this restoration and transformation a reality and to complete the work on this campus that has been done so well by the Jamaica Plain NDC and others,” said Charles Adam, Regional Vice President, Pennrose

 

"We are fortunate to partner with Pennrose to preserve this community gem. This project will add much-needed affordable housing to Boston's Latin Quarter and include a performance space to help Hyde Square Task Force further our mission. We are grateful to the Commonwealth and the City of Boston for helping us complete the vision for this amazing building and campus,” said Celina Miranda, Executive Director of the Hyde Square Task Force
