Kennedy, Esq. Murphy & Riley, P.C. I represent a defendant in a lawsuit concerning a fa l that took place outside 126 Border Street, in East Boston, and I am requesting information and records concerning the street lights nearby. The adequacy of the lighting in the vicinity of the accident is an issue in the case, and some of the street lights on Border Street would ikely have illuminated the area where the accident occurred. I have been informed that after the accident (which took place onMay 31, 2018), the street lights were replaced or somehow adjusted so that the illumination in that area is brighter than it was at the time of the accident. If you could, please let me know whether this is true. Please also let me know what records would confirm this and provide me with a certified copy of the records. If I need to submit a formal pub ic records request, please let me know.Thank you for whatever help you can provide. R000079-050420 Admin Closed 10-31-19 11-14-19 05-05-20 Public Records Hristina Natcheva My name is Hristina Natcheva and I am writing on behalf of myself, my husband Nathan Lauren, and our neighbors Loic Vincent and Emilie Braun. We are the owners of the condo association at 469 E 4th St, South Boston, MA 02127. The association consists of two condo units, ours (#2) and Loic/Emilie's (#1). The condo building is new consturction and was completed in mid 2017. It replaced a prior single-family home with a yard at that address (Erect Permit dated 11/10/2016, permit No. ERT500382). In early August 2019, we came home after work one day and found a work crew in front of our home installing a 5G cell tower on a preexisting uti ity pole which is approximately 5 feet from our condo building wall. The pole had been there (owned by Crown Castle), but we had not really noticed it, as it was below the line of sight from our iving room window. The "upgrade" work done to the pole resulted in significant increase in its height and the installation of a 5G cell tower directly in front of and way too close (5-10ft) to our living space. We were not notified about any of these planned changes and when we spoke with various city officials from Mayor's office, zoning, public works, etc, we were told that they will look into this and figure out what is going on. The latest communication we received from the city was from Anthony DiBona on 9/12/19, stating that the utility pole "upgrade" was approved 3 years ago - which was before our house was even built. This means that whatever work was proposed to be done to the pole and subsequently approved did not take into consideration the proximity and intrusiveness of this structure on our property and lives. We have major health and noise pollution concerns about the location and proximity of this high frequency RF radiation emitter. I recently found out I am pregnant, and given the fact that children and pregnant women are much more susceptible to the harmful effects of high energy RF radiation, I feel unsafe in my own home. We would like to request the following documentation: 1. Any and all zoning/public works records related to this particular utility pole (on the corner of E 4th St and National St, in South Boston, Crown Castle Site ID: SB010). 2. Any applications / proposals to install or upgrade a wireless faci ity in front of our home at 469 E 4th Street (cross street is Dorchester St). We are interested in who filed these proposals/applications, sought the relief, and who approved them on the city's end. 3. Any wireless emissions/RF safety surveys or engineering surveys that were submitted to the city in support of the safety of the installation/upgrade of this wireless faci ity/cell tower. Attached are some photos of the pole in question. Thank you very much for your help with this matter. Please let us know if you have any questions.

  • CHAPTER 2 Progress Since the Last PMT
    CHAPTER 2 Progress Since the Last PMT The 2003 PMT outlined the actions needed to bring the MBTA transit system into a state of good repair (SGR). It evaluated and prioritized a number of specific enhancement and expansion projects proposed to improve the system and better serve the regional mobility needs of Commonwealth residents. In the inter- vening years, the MBTA has funded and implemented many of the 2003 PMT priorities. The transit improvements highlighted in this chapter have been accomplished in spite of the unsus- tainable condition of the Authority’s present financial structure. A 2009 report issued by the MBTA Advisory Board1 effectively summarized the Authority’s financial dilemma: For the past several years the MBTA has only balanced its budgets by restructuring debt liquidat- ing cash reserves, selling land, and other one-time actions. Today, with credit markets frozen, cash reserves depleted and the real estate market at a stand still, the MBTA has used up these options. This recession has laid bare the fact that the MBTA is mired in a structural, on-going deficit that threatens its viability. In 2000 the MBTA was re-born with the passage of the Forward Funding legislation.This legislation dedicated 20% of all sales taxes collected state-wide to the MBTA. It also transferred over $3.3 billion in Commonwealth debt from the State’s books to the T’s books. In essence, the MBTA was born broke. Throughout the 1990’s the Massachusetts sales tax grew at an average of 6.5% per year. This decade the sales tax has barely averaged 1% annual growth.

  • The Boston Case: the Story of the Green Line Extension
    The Boston Case: The Story of the Green Line Extension Eric Goldwyn, Alon Levy, and Elif Ensari Background map sources: Esri, HERE, Garmin, © OpenStreetMap contributors, and the GIS User Community INTRODUCTION The Issue of Infrastructure The idea of a mass public works program building useful infrastructure is old, and broadly popular. There was a widespread conversation on this topic in the United States during the stimulus debate of the early Obama administration. Subsequently, there have been various proposals for further federal spending on infrastructure, which could take the form of state-level programs, the much- discussed and much-mocked Infrastructure Week initiatives during the Trump administration, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s call for a Green New Deal, and calls for massive federal spending on infrastructure in the 2020 election campaign including a $1.5-2 trillion figure put out by the Biden campaign. This is not purely an American debate, either. The Trudeau cabinet spent considerable money subsidizing infrastructure construction in Canada, including for example helping fund a subway under Broadway in Vancouver, which is the busiest bus corridor in North America today. Within Europe, there is considerable spending on infrastructure as part of the coronavirus recovery program even in countries that practiced fiscal austerity before the crisis, such as Germany. China likewise accelerated the pace of high-speed rail investment 2 during the global financial crisis of 2009 and its aftermath, and is currently looking for major investment of comparable scale due to the economic impact of corona. With such large amounts of money at stake—the $2 trillion figure is about 10% of the United States’ annual economic output—it is critical to ensure the money is spent productively.
