Wicked Local
Cambridge, Somerville and Medford advocates are organizing with legislators across the state to ensure that large nonprofits, like Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, pay their fair share in taxes.
Locals may be familiar with the term PILOT (Payment in Lieu of Taxes), which calls for voluntary contributions by large nonprofits in exchange for not having to pay standard property taxes.
Cambridge has PILOT agreements with Harvard, MIT, Hult International Business School and Lesley University.
Right now, Harvard pays Cambridge about $4.3 million annually in PILOT, while MIT pays approximately $2.2 million, as well as other cash and non-cash community benefits.
Nearly two decades ago, Ferguson Township officials began discussing the need for a new public works building to replace the existing facility constructed in 1982.
Now, about four years after serious planning began, and a year after construction got underway, the township has a new 14,500-square-foot facility on the campus of its municipal offices at 3147 Research Drive. Construction on the $7.8 million building was substantially completed in February and the department occupied the facility at the end of March.
“The quality of your facilities and equipment directly translates to the quality of services you provide and the quality of life in your community,” Township Manager David Pribulka said during a ribbon cutting event on Tuesday afternoon. “I can confidently say without hesitation that this facility advances our mission, vision and values and will allow us to better serve the residents of Ferguson Township for decades to come.”
