Central Square Attn: Cambridge City Council 795 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA 02139 The Honorable, Cambridge City Council, I am writing on behalf of the newly formed Central Square Business Improvement District to request your support to Install a series of banners along the Mass. Ave. corridor designed to celebrate our shop local initiative. As you know, the strength and vibrancy of our commercial districts comes from our anchor tenants - our mom & pop stores. The CSBID believes that having a campaign highlighting our Independent retallers during a vital shopping season is critical to the districts success. In addition to the banner campaign we will be hosting a POP Central (pop-up) which is supported by CDD. We will also have our BID ambassadors handing out district maps created by CDD and will roll out a strategic online campaign spotlighting our local merchants. Along with the banner visuals, I have also attached a map of the intended locations for banner display. Following your review and consideration, I hope you will agree and approve the installation of these banners hignlight our local merchants. Thank you in advance for your consideration and please let me know if you have questions or require any further information. Mikalanestinem Michael Monestime Executive Director, CSBID Central Square Business Improvement District 620 Massachusetts Avenue, suite 3 Cambridge, MA 02139 [phone removed]
