The Connecticut Conference of Municipalities say the state’s new two-year budget will help cities and towns restrain local property taxes. Clean Slate is likely to get passed by the end of New York’s legislative session. New Haven police officers involved in the arrest of Randy Cox have been fired. And we’re taking a trip to Robert Frost’s house.


Hear more from Davis Dunavin on this week's trip to New England as part of the WSHU podcast Off The Path — available online and wherever you get your podcasts.
