FRAMINGHAM – The local carpenters union was protesting outside the construction of a Framingham Housing Authority project today, March 23. 'This project is a perfect example of wage theft. It's funded with taxpayers money,' said Rick Anketell, organizer with Carpenters Local 336. In January of 2023, the Framingham Housing Authority awarded a contract to TRAC Builders of Rhode Island for a project in South Framingham for $26.774 million. The Framingham Housing Authority project modernizes the Beaver Street federal public housing site, by converting it into a tax credit property for families at or below 30% of area median income.
