(Holyoke, MA) — It looks like Holyoke will finally be getting a new soldier’s home. A House-Senate conference committee has approved a bond bill which frees up $400 million dollars to redesign the home, and another $200 million for other veteran housing project’s statewide. The bill now heads back to the House and Senate for a final vote before heading to Governor Baker, who is expected to sign it.
