Cambridge Residents Express Concerns Over Upzoning
As a candidate for Cambridge City Council, I have been engaging with residents through door-knocking and discussions about their concerns and desires.
Regarding housing, many residents have expressed support for multifamily zoning citywide, but with the understanding that it would be limited to residential-sized projects, such as quadplexes.
They believed it would not be used to propose 80-plus-unit apartment buildings across the city with limited oversight.
I recently attended a forum hosted by A Better Cambridge, where 14 other candidates and I discussed the future of housing in Cambridge, including the February 10 upzoning changes.
Candidates were asked about their stance on these changes, revealing a range of opinions on the matter.
Author's summary: Cambridge residents are reevaluating upzoning due to large-scale developments.
- Residents initially supported multifamily zoning citywide.
- They expected limited residential-sized projects, not large apartment buildings.
- Candidates discussed upzoning changes at a recent forum.
