Fresh Pond Day 2014!
Fresh Pond Day was a blast this year! Check out some of the highlights from this beautiful spring day on the Reservation. Hope to see you at Fresh Pond Day next year!
Second Street Traffic Calming
The project includes reconstruction of portions of the sidewalks, construction of new sidewalk ramps and roadway reconstruction, as well as traffic calming elements to reduce vehicle speeds and enhance safety for pedestrians.
Emergency Planning Guide
The guide outlines care and custody options, including caregiver authorization, temporary agent authorization, and guardianship of a minor. The guide offers a comparison of how these options differ, and outlines the process for setting up each of these arrangements. It also offers a checklist of documents that parents may want to ensure they have in a safe place and available to the child and his or her caregiver as needed, such as passports, medical records, contact information and more.
Wayfinding Banners - Neighborhood Commercial Identity
Hang banners in 13 strategic high-traffic, high-density business and neighborhood areas to identify commercial and/or neighborhood-specific local areas in Cambridge. This would support commerce, diversity, and neighborhood integrity.
Milestone Marked In HomeBridge Program
The City of Cambridge’s HomeBridge program recently celebrated a major milestone with its 100th home purchase, helping a local family achieve their dream of homeownership. HomeBridge provides financial assistance to eligible moderate- and middle-income buyers, enabling them to purchase homes on the open market while ensuring long-term affordability through housing restrictions. By creating new, permanently affordable homeownership opportunities across the city, the program helps families stay in Cambridge despite rising housing costs.
Current Programs
There are programs which we undertake such as creating charging stations for electric cars, doing bike promotions and education, crating a pedestrian plan and working to place bus shelters at busy stops.
Gas Fitting Permit
A gas fitting permit is required for all work to be performed in accordance with the pertinent provision of the Massachusetts State Plumbing Code and Chapter 142 of the General Laws.
