MASSterList: Just go, Stan | Kennedy University? | Greatest flops


State Police activate a number of reforms, but are they enough?
 
From new GPS tracking devices in State Police cruisers to revamping overtime pay for troopers, the Baker administration yesterday gave an update on its implementation of various reforms at the scandal-ridden State Police. Michelle Williams at MassLive has the details on overtime changes and reductions. WBUR reports on new GPS tracking devices in cruisers to help make sure troopers are actually working shifts. Fox25 reports on how, yes, Troop E is now gone. And the Herald’s Antonio Planas reports on how some experts believe much stronger reform measurers will be required to truly change the department.

About that $20M the state just dished out to Amazon …
 
The Globe’s Tim Logan digs into the details of the $20 million that the state is spending to bring Amazon, and 2,000 jobs, to a new building at Seaport Square. Most of the money, it appears, is for potential infrastructure improvement, including perhaps a new entryway to the Silver Line’s Courthouse Station and bike lanes. Fyi: The deal is separate from Amazon’s search for a new HQ2.
