AA+ OUTLOOK FOR FITCHBURG!
S&P just gave @fitchburgmass.bsky.social the strongest bond rating outlook in over a decade… a huge vote of confidence in our fiscal management.
Stronger outlook = lower borrowing costs = more $$ for roads, schools, public safety—without raising taxes.

BREAKING: Massachusetts House introduces the "Legalizing Massachusetts in All Massachusetts Communities Act."

The bill would require all municipal zoning ordinances be updated to ensure they are no more restrictive than dimensions and uses of housing already there.

Had a ball at Polar Park for opening day of the WooSox! The energy in the park was electric and I’m wishing them the all the best for the season ahead! #mapoli

For fellow Mass residents, we have an extraordinary all ages rage room in Fitchburg. They are lovely and you can rent the party room too and make a whole day of it. Smashing things can be quite cathartic
How are y’all handling your anger?

When the unthinkable happens and disaster strikes — like the Merrimack Valley gas explosions or flooding in Fitchburg and Leominster — the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency is there on the front lines working around the clock to save lives, protect homes and keep our communities safe.
