However, he added that the more complaints the City receives, “the stronger the case will be. Then I can create a file.” If people do not report issues such as these, “I feel like a lot of times, it’s more likely to fall through the cracks,” Flynn said. To contact Flynn directly, email him at [email protected]. “Everyone knows that paving a lawn is a violation,” Gretchen Van Ness, the other zoning committee co-chair, added. “If you see anything happening, call 311. If you are afraid of being identified, call 911.” Also, in response to the recent gas explosions in Merrimack Valley, District Five City Councilor Tim McCarthy opened up about his own experiences about a gas explosion near his father’s home in Readville in 2010.

Another environmental concern of McCarthy, which he co-pro- posed in the Boston City Council that day with District Six City Councilor Matt O’Malley, was the planting of trees when new houses are built that cut down trees on the property. 7(!4 9/5 %80%#4 “I’ve had enough,” McCarthy said of developers who tear down neighborhood trees to put up driveways, and other similar con- cerns.
