To the Honorable Board:

 

As you are aware, in April, 2012, your Honorable Board endorsed the SomerVision Comprehensive Plan, that was later approved by the Somerville Planning Board.  Consistent with the Goals, Policies and Actions of the SomerVision plan, I am submitting to your Board for your review a Complete Streets Ordinance that works to ensure that all users of our public ways have equal access to facilities.

 

My staff and I are available to answer any questions you may have about this Ordinance.

 

Respectfully submitted,

 

Joseph A. Curtatone

Mayor
