Via the Resistat meeting:Hey neighbors--this one is important. The City of Somerville wants to meet with the neighborhood to discuss what's going on with the Star Market site.
As many of you will recall, the proposed purchase that was brewing last year has evaporated. And so there is nothing underway from the private purchase side, as far as we know.
The city wants to discuss what some future options might be around the site. I think this is a crucial meeting learn about what tools the city might have at this point. But we want have knowledge and input on whatever the next steps might be.
Please turn out, if you can.

We have marching orders for the clean up day. I assume WHNA will target the Ward 4 stuff with Jesse Clingan. The map says we'll be focusing on the Mystic to Healey stairs area. But if that's not your Ward feel free to check out the other tasks and locations.
Here's the Facebook page with details and a sign up page: https://www.facebook.com/events/242532196290732/
I have signed up as Winter Hill Neighborhood Association and I'll help with what they need as a captain. But please also RSVP from the facebook link as individuals so they can get a count.
9am at the Boathouse is a breakfast, not required. But please be there before 10am when we really start the work. You'll get gloves, bags, instructions, and more details about what's up for the project.
On the day: please find me [or some captain] to sign a paper waiver by 10am--I'm told that attendance level counts help them to get grants and demonstrate effectiveness.
At noon there will be a barbecue and chances for conversation.
Weather seems to be cloudy, but remember the sunscreen if you need it. Maybe a hat.

Herring migration viewing opportunity
May. 4th, 2017 11:11 amJust got an email from MyRWA about the herring viewing open house hours. This is about the health of a river that runs through Somerville, and I appreciate the work these folks do for our green space.
