    Somerville has become the second city in Massachusetts to eliminate all minimum parking requirements city-wide. "I think [parking reform] can be a difficult conversation to start, but I really do think that there’s a lot of value in pursuing it.” @BenForWard3

    Sorry to hear of the passing of former Economic Development Secretary @GregBialecki. One of the good guys in Massachusetts civic affairs. A mentor and friend. He will be missed.

    RT @jessekb: Great piece by @cdempc in today's Commonwealth Beacon newsletter! Few better voices to make the case that @MayorWu's plan for White Stadium has been open and transparent. Let's move forward and bring this important community asset into the 21st century.
