NORTH ATTLEBORO - The shutdown of the federal government is entering its second month with no end in sight.
Federal employees, who are required to work but are not receiving paychecks, will receive some relief if they reside in North Attleboro.
Town Manager Michael Borg made the announcement in mid-October that employees will not be assessed penalties or interest if they are late making payments to the town.
He discussed the steps the town is taking when he was in the North TV studio on Wednesday for a recording of his monthly Town Manager’s Report.
