EVENT: Wed., Jan. 28---SCHOOL BUILDING AUTHORITY MEETS

The Massachusetts School Building Authority meets. The News Service reported earlier this month Treasury officials sent letters to Beacon Hill leaders that asked to loosen current rules that demand communities provide 20 to 60 percent of school construction costs. The officials cited expected federal assistance through a stimulus package and said the move, along with "targeted investment," would help stimulate jobs and eliminate uncertainty over local funding votes.
