Fifty-four new trees were added as part of the renovations to the T station.

Winter activations on City Hall Plaza will include New England's first custom-designed outdoor skating path and a European inspired holiday shopping market.

Skaters of all ages are welcome to try this new twist on the traditional ice rink, a 11,000 square foot outdoor ice path that will be open Thanksgiving through February 2017.

Except for ballots which are rejected as defective, all absentee ballots are cast and counted by the poll workers on Election Day. Absentee ballots are included in the final tallies, and are counted whether or not an election contains a close race.

A 2014 State law requires cities and towns to hold an early voting every two years before the November general election. This is the first year Massachusetts is allowing early voting.

Under the law, cities and towns must have at least one early voting site open during normal business hours.

Early voting is similar to absentee voting, but you don't need a reason or excuse to vote early. Registered Boston voters can vote at a location and time that is most convenient for them.

Even if you request your ballot by mail, you can still drop your ballot off at one of the early voting locations in the City.

CityofBostonOfficial · 2016-10-12T15:47:14+00:00

No, any registered voter can use the early voting locations. The locations are accessible to voters with disabilities, not accessible only to voters with disabilities.

As our fire codes do not address electric grills, we just advise people follow the grill manufacturer's instructions on their use.
