Public Hearing to Discuss Split Tax Rate

November 7, 2009

The council will be discussing the split tax rate in a public hearing on November 17th:

PUBLIC HEARING for the purposes of setting the tax classification so that the necessary votes can be taken to determine the percentage of the local tax levy to be borne by each class of property for fiscal year 2010.

Although I am not yet a city councilor, I welcome your thoughts and concerns.

Who should manage the Attleboro Industrial Business Park?

October 13, 2009

The city recently announced that they are  actively seeking new tenants for the industrial business park. How do Attleboro constituents feel about the city taking on this additional debt burden from the ARA?


Downtown Redevelopment – Good for the City?

October 13, 2009

This is a very ambitious plan that will cost a significant amount of money, granted most of the financing coming from matching state and federal funds. However, does anyone else wonder what the city will do if they build all the new condos along Ten Mile River as part of the development and then can’t sell them? Will the city be left “holding the bag” adding to an ever increasing debt burden in a fiscally challenging environment?
