When Mendon resident Russ Gregoire opened his third-quarter property tax bill earlier this month, he knew there would be a substantial increase from two overrides passed by town voters.

In Westborough, the average tax bill jumped nearly 8 percent this year - higher than many nearby MetroWest towns. |
