Overview: In a recent Plymouth Board of County Commissioners meeting, a decision was made to offer a local office space to Mr. Michael Brunell from the Office of Inspector General at the Department of Commerce. This arrangement provides Brunell with a workspace closer to home, reducing his commute significantly, for a nominal rate of $333.33 per month, totaling $4,000 annually. The commissioners unanimously supported this month-to-month agreement, allowing Brunell to operate independently in an upstairs office without necessitating extensive county resources or leasehold improvements.

Overview: During the recent Middleborough School Committee meeting, the loss of a critical grant initially approved for the district’s fiscal year 2025 budget became a focal point of concern. This development, which involves the rescission of the FC 311 grant intended to support students’ behavioral and mental health, amounts to a financial shortfall of $73,755. The district had been approved for the grant but was informed that it would not receive the funds due to the town’s noncompliance with an unfunded state mandate related to the MBTA Commuter Rail.
