Thank you, @mma.org for hosting another spectacular #Connect351 event. MassDEP's Recycling, Brownfields, Electric Vehicles, Air Quality, and Drinking Water teams were thrilled to participate last week—sharing expertise, exchanging ideas, and supporting our cities and towns.
Last week, we joined Coalition for Local Public Health (CLPH) members in connecting with municipal leaders, government officials, and public servants at #Connect351, hosted by the Massachusetts Municipal Association. (1)

Gov. Maura Healey and Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll spoke to some 1,400 city and town leaders from across Massachusetts this morning during #Connect351, touching on a number of their priorities, including affordability, housing, health care and the popular Community One Stop for Growth portal.
"Do we want to have a hard conversation on how we want to handle our disagreement now, for 5 minutes, so we don't spend 5 months dealing with the fallout of our not getting on the same page?"
