City Budget Walk Through
The Budget Office will host two community engagement events in February to help residents understand how the City’s budget works, how community input shapes budget decisions, and how the community can meaningfully participate in the budget process - both now and in future cycles.
Planning Board
The Cambridge Planning Board reviews plans and proposals under the Special Permit provisions of the Cambridge Zoning Ordinance and Chapter 40A of the Massachusetts General Laws, proposes or reviews zoning amendments, makes recommendations to the City Council about proposed revisions to the Zoning Ordinance, and engages in general planning efforts to improve the physical environment of the City.
