Weekly Recap
Pawtucket Residents – Mayor’s Message: The FY2027 Budget Address outlines continued responsible financial management and strategic investments in Pawtucket’s future, including full funding for schools with an additional $1 million, strengthened public safety, modernization of city services, and support for arts, youth programs, and community organizations. Backed by strong credit ratings and stable reserves, the budget supports ongoing development projects and housing growth across the city, while maintaining essential services with a modest 0.88% increase—about $12.50 per month for the average homeowner.
