• The Patrick-Murray Administration announces the South Coast Rail Technical Assistance Grant Application Round for FY13. 

    Technical assistance funding has been provided to communities over the past four years to implement the goals and objectives of the South Coast Rail Land Use and Economic Development Corridor Plan. Working in concert with the three Regional Planning Agencies in the region (the Southeastern Regional Planning and Economic Development District, the Old Colony Planning Council and the Metropolitan Area Planning Council), communities have utilized technical assistance funds to implement the smart growth principles of the Corridor Plan through efforts that include transit oriented development bylaws, riverwalk planning, mixed-use bylaws in town centers and bicycle and pedestrian connectivity studies. Applicants for FY13 technical assistance funds are encouraged to submit proposals for projects that support the advancement of economic development opportunities in Priority Development Areas (PDAs) and preservation in Priority Protection Areas (PPAs).
