To the Honorable Senate and House of Representatives in General Court' Assembled: The Division of Metropolitan Planning herewith respectfully submits its annual report for the year ending November 30, 1934. Special Reports In accordance with instructions from the General Court, this Division has been engaged this year in the investigation and preparation of reports on the following matters having to do with proposed rapid transit extensions or im- provements in the District. 1. Removal of the Washington Street Elevated Structure in Boston, Rox- bury and West Roxbury and substitution therefor of a subway in accordance with Chapter 36 of the Resolves of 1933. This resolve called for a joint report by the Metropolitan Planning Division and the Boston Transit Department. 2. Advisibility of extending the Cambridge Subway to Arlington and the rapid transit system from Lechmere Square in Cambridge to Arlington in accordance with Chapter 22 of the Resolves of 1934. 3. Advisability of extending the rapid transit system in the city of Boston from Forest Hills Station to Spring St. or the Dedham line in accordance with Chapter 40 of the Resolves of 1934. These reports must be filed early in December of 1934. In none of these re- ports is the Division making definite recommendations but we feel that a sin- cere effort must be made to provide for the future financing of desirable and needed rapid transit extensions or improvements and therefore we are filing a bill providing for the setting up of a fund which will accumulate for this purpose and make such improvements possible without the burden of long- term bond issues.

    The Office of Premier of Ontario 1945-2010: Who Really Advises?

    The Office of Premier of Ontario 1945-2010: Who Really Advises? Patrice Dutil and Peter P. Constantinou This article focuses on the composition of the Ontario Premier’s office and uses an institutionalist approach to put the influence of advisors in context. It looks at expenditures attributed in the Public Accounts to the Premier’s Office and staffing. It assumes that the number of advisors and their placement in the decision-making hierarchy should have a material impact on the quantity and quality of the advice being received by the Premier. Among other things the articles 2013 CanLIIDocs 388 shows that the classic policy/administration divide was not clearly defined in Ontario. Instead it exhibits a back-and-forth habit of experimentation that depended on the personality of the prime minister, the capacities of political and bureaucratic advisors, and the stages of the governmental cycle. There have been discernible cycles in the hiring of political staff and in the growth of expenditures that would indicate the Premier’s Office was more concerned with campaign preparations and externalities than it was in rivaling bureaucratic influence. Compared to Ottawa, where the structures of the Prime Minister’s Office and the Privy Council Office have been far more distinct in this similar time frame, the Ontario experience reveals itself as one of constant experimentation. or almost two generations, observers of all sorts In her study for the Gomery Commission, Liane have almost unanimously lamented the growth in Benoit noted that political staff (or “exempt staff”) Finfluence of prime ministerial advisors.

The Liberals had captured fifty-three of 107 seats; the PCs and NDP, thirty-seven and seventeen, respectively. A Member of one of the opposition parties defecting to join the Liberals would have definitively changed the balance of power in the Legislature. Even with the Speaker coming from the Liberals’ ranks, a floor crossing would give the Liberals a de facto majority and sufficient seats to drive forward their legislative agenda without having to rely on at least one of the opposition parties. A January article in the Toronto Star revealed that the Liberals had quietly made overtures to at least four PC and NDP MPPs since the October election, 1 meaning that a floor crossing was a very real possibility.

Quackenbush, Executive Director, MPO Staff O T P A O IZ LMPOI N TA A N G P OR LANNING TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM DATE: December 21, 2017 TO: Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization FROM: William S. Kuttner RE: Weight and Height Restrictions that Impact Truck Travel 1 INTRODUCTION This memorandum presents information about bridges in the Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) area that have signs restricting the weight or height of vehicles permitted to pass over or under them. MassDOT personnel monitor these weight and height restrictions, along with a bridge’s physical condition, or rating, and summarize them as inspection reports in MassDOT’s internal database. However, the physical condition or rating of bridges is not the direct concern of this study. The concern of this study is that truck restrictions cause trucks that are otherwise fully compliant with Massachusetts and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) size guidelines to use more circuitous routes than necessary to reach their various commercial destinations. Forced circuitous truck travel increases expenses for freight carriers and customers, increases the total environmental impact for a given level of freight traffic, and increases the negative impacts on local residents and communities. This study characterizes the severity of height and weight restrictions on trucks in the MPO region. The information developed will be used to evaluate projects considered for inclusion in two MPO planning documents: the Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) and the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).

I further argue that these three features of flop, interruption, and audience play are distinctively facilitated by Shakespeare in both text and performance which, in turn, demonstrates the potential of both clown and Shakespeare to not only disrupt theatrical conventions, but to imagine new relationships to social and political power structures. To this end, I ally the flop with Jack Halberstam’s sense of queer failure to investigate the relationship between Macbeth and 500 Clown Macbeth.

Honorable Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled. In compliance with the provisions of section 33 of chapter 30 of the General Laws (Tercentenary Edition) the Division of Metropolitan Planning herewith respect­ fully submits the portion of its annual report for the year ending November 30, 1935 (Pub. Doc. No. 142), wdiich contains recommendations or suggestions for legislative action. The Division is fully conscious of the need of economy, and we have for several years limited our suggestions to those which we consider most necessary from a traffic or rapid transit standpoint. H i g h w a y P r o j e c t s . I. At such time as the Commonwealth can afford the expenditure, we earnestly recommend the following highway projects: The construction of a bridge over the Charles River at Gerry’s Landing, between Cambridge and Boston. This bridge will connect the Fresh Pond Parkway and its extension, the Alewife Brook Parkway, with the Soldiers Field Parkway on the Boston side of the Charles River. The State has already completed its new main northwestern highway known as Highway No. 2 from West Concord to the Alewife Brook Parkway. This highway will soon be extended to a direct con­ nection with the Mohawk Trail, and will become one of the most used routes in the Commonwealth.
