City official Gerry McCafferty graciously provided a link today to the recently-released ten-year plan to end long-term homelessness in Springfield, "Homes Within Reach" (PDF). It is a well-written plan and one that folks should read for themselves, not settling for two-minute media sound bites.
In other news, Mayor Charles Ryan was released from Baystate Medical Center this morning, according to his chief of staff Michele Webber. He is now "resting comfortably at home," she reports. "All diagnostic tests have been completed. The Mayor is very pleased with the results as they indicate that he is in good health and will be fully able to resume all of his duties."
That’s a relief. The mayor extends a welcome to the press at his home tomorrow at 12:30.
