Collaboration between communities, access to town government improves during pandemic, municipal officials say

MetroWest Daily News Ashland, like many communities throughout the state and nation, has struggled to secure doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. Town leaders have put in requests for the vaccine, but have been denied. “Obviously, we were struggling like everyone else,” said police Sgt. Ed Burman, the town’s COVID-19 task force manager. The state Department of Public Health encouraged town leaders to create partnerships with surrounding communities that are also having difficulty getting doses of the vaccine. Hosting a regional clinic could prompt the state to send more doses faster. “They kept telling us Ashland was too small,” said Burman. “They didn’t want to send us 100 doses, 200 doses.”

Emissions compact – just Mass , Conn and R I – starts with room to grow

BOSTON Though only Massachusetts and three of the 13 state and city governments that had been part of discussions around creating a regional effort to staunch vehicle emissions along the East Coast agreed Monday to be part of the program from the get-go, Gov. Charlie Baker said it is a pretty good place to start. Twelve states and Washington, D.C. began the process more than two years ago of developing a regional cap-and-invest program to reduce carbon pollution from cars and trucks and generate the resources needed to expand clean transit options and improve public health. On Monday, the leaders of four jurisdictions Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut and Washington, D.C. signed on to be the program s initial members.
