A state subsidy for the anti-overdose drug Narcan has run out. How will the price increase affect Massachusetts municipalities grappling with the opioid epidemic? Plus, good news for Chelsea commuters, politicians push for more trees in Boston and moving a Sheffield monument that commemorates a UFO sighting. All that and more on this week's local news roundtable! Guests: Lauren Dezenski, Seth Daniel and Sue O'Connell.
