Beverly Mayor Scanlon's plan to increase the Trash pickup Fee (read:
TAX) is not very popular, in fact, many residents prefer an alternative..

Public Transportation
Published in THE SALEM NEWS 01/27/2012.
The Massachusetts Public Transport Authority is trying to cover its debt-ridden (Big Dig) ass by making plans that considerably raise travel fares as well as severe cuts to services, such as totally eliminating some bus routes and weekend rail service altogether. Cuts which may radically affect people that can't afford cars otherwise and need to get to work.
