| WHEREAS: | As residential developments are continuously added to Cambridge, we are faced with the serious situation of reaching a density level in our neighborhoods that is not beneficial to residents; and |
| WHEREAS: | As more and more residential developments threaten to alter the fabric of certain neighborhoods and raise the question of density as it relates to crime and other negative impacts, it appears time for the City to reevaluate its current city-wide zoning plan; and |
| WHEREAS: | Just-A-Start has three imminent projects within two blocks of each other (Immaculate Conception Church, Antique Shop on Elm St, and Columbia Auto Parts), and these projects would severely impact the already serious density situation of the neighborhood: now therefore be it |
| ORDERED: | That the City Manager be and hereby is requested to have the Planning Board and Zoning Board impose a moratorium on Just-A-Start from developing these three projects until O9 of December 10, 2007 and O10 of January 28, 2008 have been deliberated and resolution reached. |
| In City Council December 10, 2007 Adopted as amended by the affirmative vote of seven members. Attest:- D. Margaret Drury, City Clerk A true copy; ATTEST:- D. Margaret Drury, City Clerk |
