Mayor Michelle Wu is appealing to legislators again for relief for Boston homeowners.

A previous home-rule petition was debated and then defeated in the state Senate just weeks ago in a bitter battle.

The sticking point was shifting more of the burden on the commercial sector.

The City Council voted unanimously to set the residential tax rate at $ 11.58 per $ 1,000 of value.
