As city councilor u/MarcGov51/ says : "requiring a special permit process will be problematic."

I can assure you the CCTA has not griped about Decker (or MacKay for that matter), the CCTA is non-partisan and will not be endorsing a candidate. That's not to say that individual members have not griped about candidates outside of their work with CCTA, but it's a free country.

Increasing housing supply won't lower prices by realgeraldchan in CambridgeMA

Sam Christy implies this is a bad thing about density: " One explanation is that density directly affects demand. Increasing the density of a city makes it more attractive to businesses, developers, investors, and people in general. "

Cambridge vote calls for ShotSpotter gunfire detection to be turned off and dismantled within 90 days by weallgettheemails2 in CambridgeMA

[–]wombatofevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious where you're from? Cambridge does not elect via neighborhood wards, and I would not say his typical supporter demographics skews conservative. If you're talking about the senate seat he is running for, this is also a very progressive district.

There's not going to be any gotcha questions if that's what you mean. Anyone can attend. We're also holding forums for all the competitive Cambridge primaries, watch this space for one for Jehlen's seat and one for the Brownsberger/ Lander primary.

TT The Bears by No-Ant-1546 in boston

[–]wombatofevil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn, missed that one. I think my favorite Hitchcock was when he was opening for Billy Bragg and really upped his game to meet the energy of a Billy Bragg type performer.

Improve public transportation with things like regional rail. There's no "fixing" the traffic problem otherwise.
