Affordable Housing is a huge issue on the minds of people in Somerville, especially since the vote by the Planning Board to allow FRIT to build just 6% Affordable Housing at their new site rather than 12.5% or the 20% requirement and instead pay money into an affordable housing fund.

Another question on the minds of many is who will the Democrats put forward to run for Governor against our current Governor Charlie Baker. 

Coming up on Tuesday May 30th. A Somerville Democratic City Committee citywide meeting with Former Senator (and former and future? candidate for Governor) Dan Wolf and a discussion of Affordable Housing with Somerville Community Corporation's affordable housing expert Jesse Kanson-Benanav 7 pm at the Somerville High School.
