YES for a Better Boston!

11.09.2016

The people have spoken … and they said YES for a Better Boston!

We are thrilled that Boston voters have voted yes for this opportunity to fund affordable housing, parks and open space, and historic preservation for our City. We’re grateful for the leadership of Mayor Walsh, Councilors Flaherty and Campbell, and elected officials across Boston who endorsed this mission.

This Coalition has grown to an impressive and committed group of organizations and individuals, to faith leaders and religious organizations, to labor unions, to community activists and civic organizations, to small businesses, to Ward Committees and elected officials. This broad-based support was reflective of Boston’s make-up and geography, and it is our intent to stay together following this election to advocate for equitable distribution of these vital funds.

We look forward to the next steps in this process and making a renewed investment in our neighborhoods through the Community Preservation Act.
