Letter from Janet Randall regarding City Councillors: please support businesses & residents near Cambridge St

1 Taylor, Bernice From: Randall, Janet <[email removed]> Sent: Sunday, April 7, 2024 8:24 PM To: City Council Cc: City Clerk; Charles Teague Subject: City Councillors: please support businesses & residents near Cambridge St City Clerk, please enter this into the council record. I am writing to echo the email sent to you by Charles Teague: On Council Orders 1 & 2: Fix the law that will allow businesses and residents to rent parking lots that are available after work hours. BEFORE removing the street parking on Cambridge Street. It makes sense to remove the parking during construction only if there is alternative parking. That will allow residents, visitors, businesses, and their customers and employees to go about their lives, and make Cambridge a more civil and humane city. Please approve these orders. On Council Order 3: Communities should have input. So a community meeting makes lots of sense. Please approve it. Thank you, Janet Randall ------------------------------------ 64 Granville Road Cambridge, MA 02138 [phone removed] [email removed] ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Charles Teague <[email removed]> Date: Sat, Apr 6, 2024 at 9:36•PM Subject: SUPPORT policy orders 1,2,3 (2024 #49,#50,#51) without amendment To: <CityCouncil@cambridgema.gov> Cc: <cityclerk@cambridgema.gov> Bcc: [email removed] City Clerk, please enter this into the council record. Please vote for these reasonable and thoughtful orders without amendment. It is only fair to provide replacement parking before , not after, removing the street parking to support our neighborhood businesses, employees, customers, and residents so that our community thrives together. Order 3 is for a community meeting which, again, is only fair.
