Wu, business leaders reach compromise on possible property-tax increase

Scott Van Vorhis reports a possible deal between Mayor Wu and the heads of area businesses and local commercial property owners on a plan that would let Boston temporarily increase taxes on commercial property to minimize the amount city homeowners would see their bills go up because of the Covid-related decline in property values downtown - just by a smaller amount than Wu had originally proposed. The move still needs the approval of the legislature and governor.

Mayor Wu

Where is your mind?
Inflation happened. It was a thing.
Meanwhile, home rule means that cities and towns pay for all the things that went up in price.
Look up how this works someplace.
I remember there was no plan
I remember there was no plan B. Did we go straight to plan C or F?
