Triple A Northeast is reporting this week that the price of a gallon of regular gasoline in the Commonwealth is down this week by a single cent, at the lowest price point for this point of the calendar since 2005. 

The average of a gallon of regular self serve unleaded gasoline is $2.20 in the Commonwealth, six cents below the current national average. 

Gasoline prices have dropped nationally for 24 consecutive days. 

The range in prices in the latest Triple A survey is 40 cents, from a low of 2.01 to a high of 2.41. 

The Fall River City Council, with an eye on the calendar this week, will be in Council Chambers tonight on the Second Floor of Government Center, with decisions left to be made regarding the Fiscal Year 2018 Budget, with questions remaining on water and sewer line items, as well as Police and Fire. 

Its likely that motions will be made later tonight to begin to reduce certain line items, as doubts have been raised among the nine members as to the revenue projections upon which this budget is based.
