High Voltage, High Stakes. Join our June 9 transmission forum in Boston. You don’t want to miss this conversation about changes needed for planning and procuring electric transmission to meet New England's growing energy demand. #EnergyTwitter

Action Alert: Traffic Advisory will discuss Miriam St. Traffic Calming request on Friday at 830am. This will be one of the first applications under the new policy passed in 2021. Details safestreetswakefield.com/adv…
Wakefield needs to pass 40A MBTA Communities zoning. Appreciate the work the subcommittee is doing to bring a proposal to town meeting. #fridaynight is catchup night.
Wakefield friends. Tonight was my last Town Council meeting after 6 years. Tomorrow we elect two new Councilors - please vote! Local elections matter!

So excited to hear the incomparable @Gina_McCarthy speak at @massmunicipal #massmuni24 this morning - not going to lie, I’m a bit of a fan girl!
My '24 resolution is to drive less. Week 1 takeaway is it takes lots of planning! Of 104 m in trips, carpooled 51%, public transited 25%, walk/biked 10% & drove solo 14%.
This is outrageous!
Show me a weirder holiday display than Mystic Valley charter school placing a blow-up Grinch & stolen @RideBluebikes bikes in the fenced-off lot of the business they just bought and tore down, and a sign that says “no bus and bike lanes.” Folks they get public education money.
This is huge! Hope MLPs are held to the same standards especially after the Peabody Peaker debacle. TY @MassGovernor! – at Saugus, MA
Anyone who followed Massachusetts' Future of Gas proceeding knows there's been a lot of twists and turns. But three years after it first began, the DPU's order is out today and it appears the state is breaking up with natural gas. Story here: bostonglobe.com/2023/12/06/s…
I can think of lots of places around #wakefieldMA this could go! BTW this account is one of my favorites - well worth the follow! – at Wakefield, MA

Very excited by the opportunities in this legislation and encourage municipal officials to be open to it, esp ADUs. It is time! – at Wakefield, MA
We can be honest about the housing market in Massachusetts right now. Rent eats up paychecks. Homeownership seems out of reach.
To bring down costs, we need more places to live. Today, we filed the Affordable Homes Act — our blueprint to create and rehab more than 65K homes.

Love hearing from more pro-housing people joining their local planning & zoning boards in Massachusetts.
Want to have an impact on our housing crisis? Join your local planning board, zoning board, conservation commission, design review board, redevelopment authority board, etc.

From Leominster to Libya, we are seeing the devastating impacts of climate crisis. This is why I have asked my colleagues on Wakefield Town Council to order a town-wide climate plan bc every decision should consider climate impact! – at Medford, MA
Leominster officials issued a state of emergency after heavy rains caused flooding in the city. GBH’s @markherzradio reports from the banks of Monoosnoc Brook.

I can think of a few Wakefield streets that can use these starting with Greenwood Ave behind Greenwood School - @SafeWakefield – at Saugus, MA
Four years after speed humps first arrived in Somerville, officials say they’ve learned a lot about how — and how not — to install the traffic calming measures, as they continue to implement more of them. trib.al/CsfdBVO
