Per the plans and what was said at meetings, 15 of the parking units will be contractually leased to Lesley.

I thought this was a requirement when developers sought to increase the density (number of units). Of course, it's hard to believe there are 42 units in the approved development on Upland and Mass Ave. I thought there was the assumption that some of these parking spaces were part of an arrangement with Leslie but it may be that they are mostly additional income for the building owner.

FYI. I think it is important for everyone to weigh in on this subject, including those who favor smart near-transit development with reduced parking. The hard part of any master plan is trying to get the right balance between the shape of the city we need to become (meeting the needs of new populations) with the legitimate concerns of the various populations who live/work here now. For that to happen, we all need to think about what we value and what we are willing to pay for/give up.

FW: Cambridge PD: CITYWIDE Alert - Cambridge Police Department to Implement ShotSpotter Flex Gunfire Alert and Analysis Service to Enhance Public Safety Response & Crime Intelligence
by Ruth Ryals 28 May '14

From: CitizenObserver <alerts(a)citizenobserver.com> Reply-To: <alerts(a)citizenobserver.com> Date: Wednesday, May 28, 2014 11:33 AM To: Ruth Ryals <rryals(a)comcast.net> Subject: Cambridge PD: CITYWIDE Alert - Cambridge Police Department to Implement ShotSpotter Flex Gunfire Alert and Analysis Service to Enhance Public Safety Response & Crime Intelligence Citizen Observer Cambridge PD: CITYWIDE Citizen Alert Cambridge Police Department to Implement ShotSpotter Flex Gunfire Alert and Analysis Service to Enhance Public Safety Response & Crime Intelligence The Cambridge Police Department announced today that it will be implementing the SST¹s ShotSpotter Flex solution a new gun detection service on June 30, 2014 to support its proactive policing strategies and deployments and ongoing commitment to improve the safety, security and quality of life for its residents. ShotSpotter Flex, which provides the when, where and what of gunshot incidents, will be a valuable tool in supporting the Cambridge Police Department¹s policing and enforcement efforts across all areas of their operations. Not only does it enable the Police Department to respond faster and more safely to gunfire incidents, but the solution also allows the police to proactively develop effective problem-oriented, data-driven policing strategies and tactical deployments. Additionally, the Cambridge Police Department will now be able to gather more detailed gunfire incident information and forensic evidence for investigations and analysis, resulting in increased prosecutions for gun-related crime, and the data will enhance crime analysis and predictive policing capabilities, leading to improved public safety and security. How ShotSpotter Works If a gun is fired, the sound of the explosion radiates out from the point of origin. As a result of this sound, multiple ShotSpotter sensors throughout a defined coverage area are triggered. The data is transmitted to SST Operations (the company that installs and maintains the sensors), where the data is analyzed to determine whether it was actually a gunshot, rather than some other ambient noise. If confirmed as gunfire, the SST analysts will pinpoint the origin of the gunfire. Coordinates of the origin of the gunshot(s) are transmitted simultaneously to the Emergency Communications Center and the laptop computers in patrol vehicles. The time of locating a gunshot, which typically takes anywhere between 10-20 minutes, is generally less than one minute with ShotSpotter. ³ShotSpotter has proven to be extremely useful in pinpointing the actual origin of gunshots in Boston, Springfield and a number of other cities across the country,² said Cambridge Police Commissioner Robert C. Haas. ³We anticipate that this will be just as valuable as a public safety tool for the Cambridge Police and help expedite our response in the event that there are gunshot incidents, which can result in potentially saving lives, increasing weapon-related arrests, and ultimately enhancing the safety of our neighborhoods.² The decision to implement ShotSpotter in Cambridge originated nearly four years ago after the City Council expressed interest and saw great benefits in the technology. A grant application was filed with the Department of Homeland Security through the Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI). Recently, the Cambridge Police Department learned that the grant application was approved by UASI, along with the Chelsea, Everett, Revere, and Somerville Police Departments. Additionally, the Boston Police Department¹s ongoing program will be expanded. The grant will cover 100 percent of the funding for a two year trial of the technology, which will be deployed in areas that have historically had the highest incidents of gunfire. To address any questions that City of Cambridge residents may have regarding the ShotSpotter technology, the Cambridge Police Department will be hosting a live, online Q&A on its Facebook and Twitter pages on Monday, June 16 at 7 p.m. Deputy Superintendent Stephen A. Ahern will join Jeremy Warnick, Director of Communications, and address questions for 60 minutes. ### The Cambridge Police Department is committed to the enforcement of laws and preservation of order that protect the rights and property of every person within the City of Cambridge. Our mission is to provide the highest quality of police service and to impact crime, and its associated elements, through the utilization of new and proven crime prevention strategies and problem-solving partnerships with our community.

Between Wednesday night and Thursday afternoon, there were nine reported motor vehicle break-ins in those two neighborhoods, alone. Money, a purse and a backpack were targeted in at least five of the reported incidents. Two of the nine incidents involved vehicles that were unlocked. ³Anything visible is an invitation to a car break and a crime of opportunity for a thief,² said Deputy Superintendent Paul Ames. ³We cannot stress enough how important it is for people to remove any and all items from their vehicles and to always, always lock the doors.² Residents are encouraged to take the following precautions to protect themselves, their vehicles, and their belongings from a theft: * NEVER LEAVE VALUABLES IN YOUR CAR. * Make sure all of your car doors are locked and windows are rolled up when leaving your vehicle, including when parked in a residential driveway. * If you must leave packages or valuables in your car, place them in the trunk or under a blanket to conceal them so that they are not exposed. Additional tips for how you can protect your vehicles and belongings from theft can be found at www.CambridgePolice.org/SafetyTips <http://www.elabs5.com/c.html?ufl=5&rtr=on&s=jaysy,vl59,1d8,gusn,gag1,8bry,m 3cn> .

small interior painting job!

Hello Neighbors, I have been so very grateful to everyone who has helped me with everything from calligraphy to electrical lately…thought I would try luck once more! We are having a large family gathering at our house in mid June and I need someone to do a small touch-up interior paint job in the next 2-3 weeks. I realize that most painters are super busy these days - probably a handyman who can do a little reliable painting would be just fine…Any thoughts?? Thank you!! Sharon Bober 617-306-0430
