November 19, 2007 – The unfinished roof on a barn on Brookwood Farm, part of the Blue Hills Reservation, in East Milton, MA, exhibits the inability of the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR), due to increasingly low budgets, to maintain Massachusetts state parks. Additional repairs are needed on several broken windows, its rotting foundation, and its peeling and fading red paint. Former MA Governor Mitt Romney bequeathed current Governor Deval Patrick with an overwhelmingly large deficit causing Patrick to cut the operating budget of the DCR at the expense of the land.

The administration of former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney has left current Governor Deval Patrick with a $1.3 billion budget deficit, making it very difficult to improve the conditions of state parks to the necessary extent.
