August - September, 2024

As we approach the Labor Day holiday on September 2nd, 2024, you realize how quickly July and August passed by.

The Brockton City Council adopted a budget for Fiscal Year 2025 from July 1st, 2024 through June 30, 2025. All city departments with the exception of the fire department were reduced to produce a balanced spending plan.

Brockton Public Schools will open for most students on Wednesday, September 4th. We wish all students a successful and rewarding school year. Brockton High School Principal Kevin McCaskill and newly appointed School Superintendent Priya Tahiliani will begin their first, full academic year. The city is fortunate to have them as part of school leadership.

Best wishes to all faculty and staff for the school year 2024-2025.

Work continues on the new, $98+ million public safety complex which will co-locate four (4) city departments: the Central Fire Station, Brockton Police Headquarters, the Brockton Emergency Management Agency (BEMA) and our Information Technology Department. Anticipated completion of construction is Summer, 2025.

There are always challenges in municipal government. My position of councilor-at-large is a working position - with reading, research and careful analysis of issues to make the best decisions for our city. Thank you for allowing me to serve. It is truly an honor and privilege.

Best regards,

Win Farwell
