CANCELLED DUE TO LACK OF QUORUM

Several roads in Cambridge will close for community events on Sunday, October 2.

Harvard Book Store and the Cambridge Public Library welcome Gabrielle Hamilton—chef and owner of Prune restaurant in New York City’s East Village, and award-winning author of Blood, Bones & Butter—for a discussion of her memoir Next of Kin. Registration is required.

The Baker-Polito Administration announced a series of targeted measures to disrupt the increasing trend of new COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations. Governor Charlie Baker announced these changes at a time where public health data has indicated that cases are rising, with cases up by 278% and hospitalizations up by 145% since Labor Day. These measures are meant to disrupt rising trends now, so the Commonwealth can keep the economy and schools open for residents and to prevent the need to roll back to Phase I or Phase II of the reopening plan.

The International Women's Day Planning Committee consists of nearly 50 organizations committed to gender-equity throughout the Commonwealth.

Over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, the City of Cambridge, Cambridge Public Health Department, and our partners have been working to protect the health and safety of those who live and work in Cambridge.

Since Friday, October 2, seven residents of a Cambridge skilled nursing facility have tested positive for COVID-19. Five of the seven individuals are current residents of the facility; the other two individuals were discharged from the facility prior to testing positive and no longer reside in Cambridge. In addition, one facility employee who does not reside in Cambridge has tested positive for COVID-19.

Residents, business owners, employees, and community members are invited to stop by one of two informal Coffee Talk sessions to meet with City staff and project contractors to ask questions and learn more about the River Street Project.

This public health and public safety event will once again provide residents with an opportunity to anonymously and safely dispose of their unwanted firearms and, in turn, reduce the risk of suicide, potential for an accidental discharge, or wrongdoing in a home or on our city streets.

The Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) helps income-eligible Cambridge and Somerville residents pay their winter heating bills between November 1 – April 30. Applications to HEAP are accepted beginning October 1.
