It is one thing for a governor to know where the Berkshires are. It is another to understand what it takes to live here. I first encountered Maura Healey in January 2020, when I was serving on the Great Barrington Selectboard. I had traveled to the State House to testify on a home rule petition concerning the return of horse racing to the Great Barrington Fairgrounds.

PETER MOST: All hang together

It was inevitable, but it took 12 years, three votes, and a near tripling of the cost before voters agreed to replace the failing Monument Mountain Regional High School. No less inevitable is the merger of the Berkshire Hills and Southern Berkshire regional school districts. The question is how many votes and how many years it will take for voters to accept it. So far, the count is one vote and three years. Twelve years and three votes is the record for futility. Here’s hoping Sheffield does not take a run at it.
