Who is a member?
Our members are the local governments of Massachusetts and their elected and appointed leadership.
The governor today signed the “terms bill” for the $200 million fiscal 2013 Chapter 90 local road fund distribution that was authorized by separate legislation signed in June.
With both bills now law, cities and towns can begin signing contracts for local Chapter 90 projects based on the provisional apportionment letters sent by the Department of Transportation to cities and towns on April 1.
After a three-month delay, the $200 million Chapter 90 bill was finally signed by Gov. Deval Patrick on June 29. After signing the bill, the administration filed the terms bill so that the state can issue the bonds to raise the Chapter 90 funds.
