Quincy Quarry Weekly Fish Wrap: Oh what a week it was!
 
As for things national, Quincy Quarry doesn’t know where to start.  As such, it will thus stick to matters more local.
 
For starters, how twenty-six year old Fall River Mayor Jasiel Correia has done what many millennials are doing: move back in with his folks.

Apparently, his cash flow has been whacked given federal indictments on fraud sorts of charges.

And as for even more local news, Quincy has seen the roll up of (low quality, ed) prefabricated modular housing in Quincy Center. 
 
Think vertical trailer park.

Then again, surely better days are ahead for Quincy Center.

After all, things couldn’t become all that much worse.

At least long suffering locals one can only hope so.

Not that such is likely to do anything whatsoever, however.

And speaking of redevelopment, the Koch Maladministration has rolled out at least its second try at “redeveloping” Wollaston Center.

Apparently, Team Koch has yet to have learned its lessons from its expensive but so far not exactly compelling efforts to see “A New Quincy Center” actually happen.

As such, count on at least a third try. 

That and all but assuredly rolling over on anything favored developers want regards of whatever might eventually be posed as formally planned.

And for the pièce de résistance, this past Monday the Quincy City Council approved Quincy Mayor Thomas P. Koch’s ask to set the local property tax levy for 2019.
 
Single and two family property tax bills will only up by a bit over two percent higher from this year’s typical tax bill. 

At the same time, however, local residential property tax bills continue to run around twenty percent or so higher than the tax bill for identical assessed value properties in both Braintree and Weymouth.

At the same time, however, plan on local residential property tax bills continuing to run around twenty percent or so higher than the tax bills for identically assessed value properties in both Braintree and Weymouth.

Similarly, a Boston 2019 single family tax bill identical to the average Quincy property tax bill in 2019 would be for a property with roughly a sixty-seven percent higher assessed value.

In other words, our peerless mayor is looking to be planning on continuing to spend with all but wild abandon.
