• SJC again upholds MBTA Communities housing law (commonwealthbeacon.org) — Wrentham is among the MBTA Communities watching closely as Massachusetts' highest court again upholds the state's multifamily zoning law, rejecting Marshfield's claim it's an unfunded mandate. The ruling reinforces that towns like Wrentham must plan for compliant multifamily zoning, with the justices stressing the law's role in addressing the statewide housing crisis and limiting local avenues to challenge it.
