Hi Neighbors, My stepdaughter and her fiance are looking for a month to month rental while they continue to shop for a house. Unfortunately the building they were renting in has been sold and they have to move unexpectedly and quickly. They are open to a variety of situations (studio/1BR/2BR). If you know of anything with a good, stable landlord in our neighborhood or nearby towns, please let me know. Thank you!Wendy

by Ruth Ryals 20 Jun '16

20 Jun '16

There is a big vote today at 5:30 p.m. EDT on gun safety measures. If you think we need to demand action to make our communities safer from gun violence, please call your senators now and urge them to vote to help prevent more tragedies: Sen. Elizabeth Warren (202) 224-4543 Sen. Ed Markey (202) 224-2742 Don¹t be deterred by knowing where they stand and will vote on the issue. They all count the calls they get and use them to justify their votes. If you disagree with me, feel free to register that sentiment as well. Ruth

FW: [PSNA] June 16 PSNA Meeting
by Ruth Ryals 16 Jun '16

16 Jun '16

Some of you might want to attned the Porter Square Neighbors Association meeting tonight, since our neighborhood is affected by the current/changes to the left turn onto Mass Ave from the shopping center or from Somerville Ave and the timing of the lights. Upland Rd has certainly seen times lately when the evening rush hour traffic waiting for the light to turn onto Mass Ave from Upland has stretched past Vincent Ave. At most of these meetings no one is speaking up for sanity on Upland Rd or to prevent frustrated drivers from taking all of the alternate routes they can find, often speeding down Mt. Vernon, Walnut, Arlington, Washington, Richdale, etc. Ruth On 6/13/16, 8:05 AM, "PSNA on behalf of John Howard" <psna-bounces(a)lists.portersquare.net on behalf of jhh(a)alum.mit.edu> wrote: >Porter Square Neighbors Association >June 16, 2016, 7-9PM >North Cambridge Senior Center >2050 Massachusetts Avenue > >AGENDA > > Traffic in Porter Square > Ears to the Ground > >TRAFFIC IN PORTER SQUARE > >Joseph Barr, the new Director of Cambridge's Traffic, Parking, and >Transportation Department, will join us to discuss a preliminary proposal >to make safety and operational improvements for all users in Porter >Square, including pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, and bus riders.

Re: [Neighbors] Reminder of why this email list exists
by Ruth Ryals 16 Jun '16

16 Jun '16

Neighbors, This email list is not intended to be used for commercial purposes. Because of such a commercial appeal this am (though couched in neighborhood terms), I just removed from the BVSC list the person who sent around a commercial real estate notice. This is not meant to keep one of us from telling our neighbors they are moving and trying to sell their furniture before they leave, or that a group of us are having a fundraiser or a yard sale.

Our son left it out in the driveway and it was stolen in broad daylight yesterday, Monday, June 13. My husband was home in the basement and saw legs walk up the driveway, back down the driveway with the bike, and take off. He ran out to find a different, abandoned bike next to our house, but our bike and thief were gone. It is a Trek Marlin 5. Brazen theft like this in our neighborhood is new to us.
