Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey has a positive approval rating, according to a new Morning Consult poll.
The poll looked at the approval ratings of governors across the country and found that 59 percent of Bay Staters approve of the incumbent Democrat, while 28 percent disapprove; 13 percent didn't know what they thought of Healey's job performance.
The police alternative department in Amherst has records of three 911 calls during a 78-day period during this past winter despite having a director, an administrative assistant, and eight full-time responders costing about $641,520.
A staff member for CRESS – which stands for Community Responders for Equity, Safety, and Service – told a town board that she wasn't sure if that call figure for the time between December 18, 2023 and March 4, 2024 is accurate.
