Speaker 2: point three billion dollar bill has hundreds of amendments, and
Speaker 2: some of them could impact the law that requires many
Speaker 2: cities in towns to zone for more multifamily housing if
Speaker 2: they're by the tee. One proposed amendment would officially declare
Speaker 2: the Mattapan High Speed Line is not in fact rapid transit.
Speaker 2: If that passed, Milton, a town that has been pushing
Speaker 2: back against the law, technically would no longer be subject
Speaker 2: to it. Another amendment, if PAST, would give cities in
Speaker 2: towns adjacent to the TEA two more years to comply.
Speaker 2: Minority Leader Bruce Tarr has introduced an amendment as well that,
Speaker 2: if PAST, would no longer make compliance a criteria for
Speaker 2: certain grant funding. To you and me, it's a patch

Speaker 1: why the endangered birds picked a section of Malibu Beach
Speaker 1: off Morrissey Boulevard as their nesting site. Not even the
Speaker 1: constant sound of cars whizzing by bothers them. Their biggest
Speaker 1: concerns are humans, dogs, and other wildlife tampering with their nests.
