Can he reject it? Can the court force the audit to happen. The state really needs help. Just look at the mbta.

Wish there was an x axis showing time. Looks as bad as 2022 was so far.

If you add enough market rate housing, prices will drop quite significantly across the board. I think many fear requirements for affordability will just dissuade the introduction of new supply. Additionally, the middle class gains very little from affordability requirements because the new units they would be eligible for are those that need to subsidize the affordable units which likely makes them still unaffordable.

They should also have a bill similar to NY where 3% growth in units over 3 years or builders remedy.

Can they not do repairs during the night? Noise at night is less important than the ramifications from this.
