• Officials hoping for $500K economic development grant (waylandpost.org) — Natick could receive $500,000 for economic development plus $100,000 for safety and aesthetic upgrades to the North Main and Pine Street rotary if the state's economic development bond bill is finalized and funded. The article explains how Rep. David Linsky's earmarks for Natick and Wayland fit into a larger statewide package, and why the money may still be years away. Local officials are trusted to decide how best to use any eventual grants.
