Neighbors and Friends,
We invite you to join us at Porter Square - Sunday, Nov 29, 10 am - 12 noon!
Hopefully, we have all had a safe Thanksgiving with, most of all, a chance to see and hug (if only virtually) our loved ones.
Most of us have much to be thankful for, although this has been a very tough year. There are, however, far too many families across this country crying for a member lost to police violence. Still, we cannot, even here in MA, get a police reform bill out of Beacon Hill.
Take the opportunity to learn more about the 100% affordable housing project proposed for 2072 Mass Ave:
November 24 (tonight!) -7:00pm

Dear friends and neighbors,
Neighbors and Friends,
We invite you to join us at Porter Square - Sunday, Nov 22, 10 am - 12 noon!
We can all talk about the transition (of the administration), and what has to happen now.
I am hoping we can make a few new signs, saying something like, "Let's come together" and vow to "make racism history". I am very much aware that even here in MA, we still do not have a police reform bill out of Beacon Hill; and here in Cambridge we have experienced some ugly examples of how far we have yet to go.
This will be a very busy meeting as we have a number of different things to cover.
First off, we will have a brief update on the proposed 100% Affordable Housing Project at 2072 Mass Ave. We will hear from Capstone Communities re their recent BZA application and thoughts about changes (reflecting input from neighbors). We will also talk about the timing of their Planning Board meeting.
Neighbors,
We invite you to join us at Porter Square - Sunday, Nov 15, at 10 am!
We can talk about the failure to pass police reform yet in MA. We need to all write/call the Shead of Speaker of the House and the President of the Senate. Tell them we want the bill now!
I am hoping we can make a few new signs, saying something like, "Where is Police Reform in MA??" and "We Vow to Make Racism History".
This will be a very busy meeting as we have a number of different things to cover.
First off, we will talk with Stephen Meuse and Patrick Baxter of the Traffic Dept about the proposed Davenport St. Direction Change. The city has agreed to hold off changes until getting input from the neighborhood (and the neighborhood organization). I have asked them to provide graphics.
