2023 City of Cambridge Department Highlights
We invite you to look back at some of the biggest accomplishments across various City departments over the past year, including Arts, Community Development, Human Services, Public Safety, Public Health, and the Public Library.
Fingerprint Services
The Cambridge Police Department offers general fingerprint services for City of Cambridge residents only.
Cambridge Public Health Department Hosting Flu Clinics and Offering Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccines
The Cambridge Public Health Department (CPHD) strongly recommends that residents get a flu vaccine this season. While a flu vaccine is always good preventative health care, it is especially important this year given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to the flu vaccine, CPHD will also be offering free Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines and boosters at the clinics. We encourage people who are unvaccinated, especially young people (12 and older), to use this opportunity to get both the flu and COVID-19 vaccines.
Sunday/Holiday Work Permits
A Sunday/Holiday Work Permit must be obtained for any contractor work to be performed on a Sunday or Holiday.
Exhibit: Beloved Apple Tree Reborn Via Public Art Project Coming To Cambridge School
When a beloved apple tree was removed as part of the reconstruction of the City of Cambridge's Tobin Montessori and Darby Vassall Upper Schools complex, cuttings from the tree were saved. A new exhibition at Cambridge Arts’ Gallery 344 shows how “The Community Grafting Project,” a public art project the city has commissioned from the architectural and design studio TSKPxIKD, is giving the original tree new life.
