ONE Mass's own Override Central

From the Globe 's Override Central.

Although there have been fewer votes than usual in Greater Boston on property tax increases this spring, the approval rate has been much higher. At least 11 communities, out of 16 that held override votes, have approved the increases.

ONE Massachusetts Leadership Team member,  Easton Selectwoman, and Massasoit Community College Municipal Finance Instructor  and Vice President of the MMA's Selectmens Association, Colleen Corona (photo, right) will educate participants on the basics of local budgets, including where we get and how we spend our money,  the fiscal crisis facing our local communities, and how we can more effectively communicate about these issues to our friends and neighbors. If you are interested in hosting or attending one of our special Municipal Connect the Dots workshops, please contact one of the following ONE Massachusetts staff members:
