MONDAY, JULY 23, 2018 Saugus asks: Where has the time gone? By Bridget Turcotte ITEM STAFF SAUGUS — The excite- ment of the start of con- struction on a new mid- dle-high school has dug up some trepidation with the historical commission.

CAPSULE, A7 City of Lynn Marblehead getting welcomes ready to set sail Mass. funding By Gayla Cawley ITEM STAFF LYNN — The State House of Representatives and Senate’s approved $41.88 billion state budget includes a large amount of local aid for the city of Lynn. Included for Lynn is $166.37 million of Chapter 70 funding, which is the major program of state aid to public and elementary schools and is a $9.34 million increase over last year, according to state Sen. Brendan Crighton’s office. The state budget also allocates to Lynn $23.15 million in local aid, or unrestricted general gov- ernmental aid. It’s not clear yet what the break- down is for the local aid, which goes into the city budget and can be used for anything, such as road- work and school transportation. Earmarks included for the city are $30,000 for State Police-directed patrols; $150,000 for the Lynn Police Behavioral Health Unit; a portion of $200,000 for Girls Inc., which will be split with three other communities; $90,000 for the E-Team Machinist program at Lynn Vocational Technical Institute; $40,000 for Cook, Kiley, Flax Pond and Ames Playgrounds; $15,000 for treatment and re- moval of invasive species in Lynn ponds; $55,000 ITEM PHOTO | SPENSER HASAK for Red Rock Park; and $50,000 for Pilayella algae Susie Schneider, the executive race of cer at Eastern Yacht Club in Marblehead, is in cleanup on King’s Beach and Long Beach. charge of Marblehead Race Week.
