Baker-Polito Administration Proposes Historic Education Funding; $40 Million Increase in Local Aid

Baker-Polito Administration Proposes Historic Education Funding; $40 Million Increase in Local Aid

Local aid to increase by 100% of projected revenue growth; over $4.7 billion total for public schools

BOSTON – Today at the Massachusetts Municipal Association’s (MMA) Annual Meeting, Governor Charlie Baker announced the Baker-Polito Administration’s Fiscal Year 2018 (FY18) budget proposal will include an increase of over $91 million in Chapter 70 education funding, totaling over $4.7 billion in total aid to public schools, including an increase of at least $20 per pupil to all 322 operating districts. The budget will also include a $40 million increase (to a total of $1.062 billion) in unrestricted local aid to the Commonwealth’s cities and towns, representing 100% of the rate of increase of projected tax revenue growth.

We are committed to investing in our cities and towns to support their efforts to drive our Commonwealth’s economic growth and prepare our children for a successful future,” said Governor Charlie Baker. “We are proud of the strong municipal partnerships our administration has fostered and look forward to more collaboration ahead as we strive for stronger schools and communities.”

Yesterday at the MMA’s Opening Session, Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito announced the administration’s plans for an $8.8 million local funding and grant package for municipalities, including $4 million for Community Compact grants and $2.8 million for the District Local Technical Assistance Program in the FY18 operating budget and $2 million in the FY18 Capital Budget, released in the spring, for the Community Compact IT Grant Program.  Lt. Governor Karyn Polito has served as a champion for the administration’s municipal partnerships, entering into 252 Community Compacts that represent over 600 community-crafted, mutual best practices aimed at improving local fiscal policies, sustainable energy practices and advancing economic development and affordable housing.

“As former local officials, Governor Baker and I appreciate the importance of our municipal relationships and the certainty state government can deliver in local aid increases and historic education funding levels,” said Lt. Governor Karyn Polito. “Through the Community Compact Program, we have been fortunate to work closely with leaders from our cities, towns, and regional planning agencies to build strong local partnerships.”

“The administration has kept to its commitment of supporting our communities,” said Secretary of Administration and Finance Kristen Lepore. “From local aid to the Community Compact to updating laws and regulations, we have made certain that local governments have the tools they need to succeed.”

In his budget proposals to date, Governor Baker has honored a commitment to increase unrestricted local aid by 75% of projected revenue growth in his first budget, and 100% of growth in subsequent years. A 3.9% consensus projected revenue growth for FY’18 was announced by Secretary of Administration and Finance Kristen Lepore and the chairs of the Senate and House Ways and Means Committees earlier this year.

Last summer, Governor Baker and Lt. Governor Polito joined local officials to celebrate the passage and signing of municipal modernization reform legislation, enhancing partnerships between state and municipal governments by eliminating or updating obsolete laws, promoting local independence, streamlining state oversight and providing municipalities with greater flexibility.

波士頓市長稱17.5萬人為正義遊行

Dear Friend,

Today in Boston we had 175,000 participate in the Boston Women's March. It was incredible to stand on the stage and look out to see hundreds and thousands of people standing up for justice and equality for all.

I said it today and I will say it every day, Boston has been and will always be a welcoming city for all. As your Mayor, I pledge to always fight for you and the progressive values we share.

Today was incredible, but what we do tomorrow and the days to follow is just as important. We must amplify the voices of the most vulnerable, we must organize for equality, we must be kind and inclusive of everyone and we must never ever allow fear and hate dictate our government or our politics.

I stood with you today and I will stand with you tomorrow.

In Solidarity,

Marty

CITYSCORE RECOGNIZED AS 2017 HARVARD ASH CENTER BRIGHT IDEA IN GOVERNMENT

CITYSCORE RECOGNIZED AS 2017 HARVARD ASH CENTER BRIGHT IDEA IN GOVERNMENT

BOSTON - Friday, January 20, 2017 - The Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation at the John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University, has recognized CityScore as part of the 2017 Bright Ideas in Government initiative. CityScore is part of a cohort that includes programs from all levels of government - school districts, county, city, state, federal agencies, and tribal nations, as well as public-private partnerships - that represent the next horizon in government work to improve services, solve problems and work on behalf of citizens. "It's an honor for CityScore to be recognized as a 2017 Harvard Ash Center Bright Idea," said Jascha Franklin-Hodge, Boston's Chief Information Officer. "Since its creation last year, CityScore has become an invaluable tool to monitor performance and create lasting improvements in Boston. We will continue to develop and expand CityScore as part of our larger commitment improve quality of life, government efficiency and public transparency." CityScore is a first-of-its kind tool created by the City of Boston to provide Mayor Martin J. Walsh, City staff and residents a way to understand the overall health of the City by scoring the City's performance on individual metrics and delivering a single, indicative number to see how operations are going on a day-to-day basis. By displaying near real-time data on City operations and quality-of-life metrics, CityScore helps the City be more responsive and effective. Since its launch last January, CityScore has helped improve the efficiency of core City services, including increased resources for emergency medical services. Last August, Mayor Walsh and the Department of Innovation and Technology (DoIT) launched an open source toolkit for CityScore to allow other cities and organizations to implement their own version of CityScore. "These programs demonstrate that there are no prerequisites for doing the good work of governing," said Stephen Goldsmith, director of the Innovations in American Government Program at the Ash Center. "Small towns and massive cities, huge federal agencies and local school districts, large budgets or no budgets at all - what makes government work best is the drive to do better, and this group proves that drive can be found anywhere." This is the fifth cohort recognized through the Bright Ideas program, an initiative of the broader Innovations in American Government Awards program. For consideration as a Bright Idea, programs must currently be in operation or in the process of launching, have sufficient operational resources and must be administered by one or more governmental entities; nonprofit, private sector, and union initiatives are eligible if operating in partnership with a governmental organization. Bright Ideas are showcased on the Ash Center's Government Innovators Network, an online platform for practitioners and policymakers to share innovative public policy solutions. Visit the Government Innovators Network at http://innovations.harvard.edu for the full list of Bright Ideas programs and for more information regarding the Innovations in American Government Awards. About the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation The Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation advances excellence in governance and strengthens democratic institutions worldwide. Through its research, education, international programs, and government innovations awards, the Center fosters creative and effective government problem solving and serves as a catalyst for addressing many of the most pressing needs of the world's citizens.

2017年海外華裔青年英語服務營自2月1日起開始開放線上報名

由中華民國僑務委員會與教育部及客家委員會共同合辦的「2017年海外華裔青年英語服務營」活動，預計招募海外華裔青年前往臺灣偏遠地區學校實地從事英語教學，需已就讀11年級以上且於2017年11月30日前年滿17足歲但未滿25足歲之華裔青年，並以英語為母語，能以簡單中文溝通，身心健康，學行良好，能適應團體生活，且具高度從事志願服務意願者為優先錄取對象。

現就讀麻州大學安城分校(Umass-Amherst)一年級的江彥龍，去年分配至新北市瑞芳國中服務，他表示雖然每年都會與家人回臺灣遊玩，但此次服務讓他接觸到身為遊客很少涉足的地區，幫助學習資源有限的弱勢家庭子弟學習英文，並藉由當老師的機會，增強了他的領導與做事能力，對他來說都是非常難得的經驗。

家長周美卿也表示，海外華裔青年英語服務營讓這群海外的青少年有機會認識自己父母的美麗故鄉，並利用他們的專長回饋或和臺灣當地小朋友交流，很高興他的兒子能夠參加這個有意義的活動。

「海外華裔青年英語服務營」活動已舉辦第12年，2016年活動計有447位華裔青年參與，讓臺灣偏遠地區受益學童逾3,164人。今年預定於7月1日到7月29日舉行，全球招收420名 (包含海外客籍志工70名)， 報名時間自2017年2月1日至2月28日止，採網路報名，申請人須先於營隊專屬網站（http://www.aidsummer.net）完成線上報名後，印出「網路登錄確認單」，連同相關報名表件於3月1日前寄（送）達波士頓華僑文教服務中心90 Lincoln St., Newton Highlands MA 02461，如有洽詢事項，可電話聯繫陳美樺小姐，TEL:617-965-8801。(圖片江彥龍提供)

Baker-Polito Administration Announces $8.8 Million in Local Grant and Community Compact Funding

Baker-Polito Administration Announces $8.8 Million in Local Grant and Community Compact Funding

BOSTON – Speaking at the Massachusetts Municipal Association’s (MMA) Annual Meeting today, Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito announced that the Baker-Polito Administration plans to file $4 million for Community Compact grants and $2.8 million for the District Local Technical Assistance Program in their Fiscal Year 2018 (FY18) operating budget proposal, to be released next week. Lieutenant Governor Polito also announced that the administration plans to include $2 million in the Governor’s FY18 Capital Budget, released in the spring, for the Community Compact IT Grant Program.

“Establishing our administration as a reliable and responsive partner for the Commonwealth’s cities and towns has been a top priority since day one,” said Governor Charlie Baker. “We look forward to building on that commitment through our upcoming budget proposal and continuing all of our work with local officials on making Massachusetts a great place to live, work, and raise a family.”

“As former local officials ourselves, the Governor and I understand how important a town’s relationship with state government can be,” said Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito. “As Chair of the Community Compact Cabinet, I have been fortunate enough to work with cities, towns, and regional planning agencies on establishing best practices, upgrading essential IT infrastructure, and identifying thoughtful efficiency and regionalization opportunities. The Baker-Polito Administration looks forward to another successful year of state and local partnership.”

“We are pleased to once again provide this important funding to invest in our communities,” said Secretary Kristen Lepore. “We have spent over $15 million on Community Compact programs over the past two operating and capital budgets, and the FY18 commitment will allow this successful program to support best practices at the local government level.”

In the FY18 budget proposal that the administration will file next Wednesday, $2 million will be proposed to continue the Community Compact’s Best Practices Program. To date, 252 cities and towns from across the Commonwealth have signed a community compact with the state. Of the more than 600 best practices identified, approximately 75% of them are either complete or underway.

The administration’s budget proposal for the upcoming fiscal year will also include $2 million for the Community Compact’s Efficiency and Regionalization Grant Program. Administered in two rounds per fiscal year, the first round of grant applications in FY17 was highly competitive and led to $1.25 million in grants for 72 municipalities and 10 school districts. The application process for the second round of this fiscal year is currently underway and closes on February 1^st.

Additionally, $2.8 million will be included in the Baker-Polito Administration’s FY18 budget proposal to continue funding the District Local Technical Assistance Program, so the state can continue working with the 13 regional planning agencies across the Commonwealth on technical issues dealing with economic development, housing, transportation and environmental projects at the local level.

In the Governor’s third capital budget, released this spring, $2 million will be provided for the Community Compact IT Grant Program. In the program’s first year, grants were awarded to 52 municipalities for various projects aimed at driving innovation at the local level. The FY17 grant application period runs from March 1 – April 1 and those municipalities who have signed up for the Best Practice program by February 15th are eligible, except for those who received an IT grant in FY16.

About the Community Compact Cabinet:

Formed in January 2015, the Community Compact Cabinet is chaired by Lt. Governor Polito and comprised of the secretaries of Housing & Economic Development, Education, Transportation, and Energy & Environmental Affairs, the Senior Deputy Commissioner of Local Services, the Assistant Secretary of Operational Services, and the Chief Information Officer of the Commonwealth. The Community Compact Cabinet elevates the Administration’s partnerships with cities and towns, and allows the Governor’s Office to work more closely with leaders from all municipalities. The Cabinet champions municipal interests across all executive secretariats and agencies, and develops, in consultation with cities and towns, mutual standards and best practices for both the state and municipalities.  The creation of Community Compacts creates clear standards, expectations and accountability for both partners.
