Lt. Governor Signs Belmont's Community Compact with the BOS

What is a Community Compact?
The Community Compact is a voluntary, mutual agreement entered into between the Baker-Polito Administration and individual cities and towns of the Commonwealth.  In a Community Compact, a community will agree to implement at least one best practice that they select from across a variety of areas.   The community’s chosen best practice(s) will be reviewed between the Commonwealth and the municipality to ensure that the best practice(s) chosen are unique to the municipality and reflect needed areas of improvement.  Once approved, the written agreement will be generated and signed by both the municipality and the Commonwealth.  The Compact also articulates the commitments the Commonwealth will make on behalf of all communities.
