Here is the link to the IAL webpage:

Dear Readers:

Here is an email from the city manager to the mayor and commissioners that I am forwarding to you along with the attached city 10 year clean water plan. I have read through the plan that has many good ideas in it. I am not sure how far along we are in its implementation but thought that it would be something that would be of interest to CAN and its members.

Dear Readers:

Attached is the agenda for the upcoming P and Z meeting next week. There are a number of items that may be of interest to you. One is further community discussion about the Mill Street School Property. Another that is being addressed at the federal and state level is about the Small Cell for improved wireless communication. This will have an impact on the city and its residents in terms of where they might be placed so also might be of interest to keep you up to date on what is going on here and elsewhere.

There are certainly other matters on the discussion list that you may be interested in, so please attend to provide your input or learn more about these issues.

Attached is my unofficial notes from last night’s city council meeting along with a report about Cambridge Waterfront Development, Inc. that is in charge of developing the Sailwinds property. I also have but will not burden you with other written reports, unless you ask me to send them along. They will soon be available on the police department website and the city website. The news about crime in Cambridge for 2018 is positive.

Dear Readers:

Here is an update on High Street work.

Subject: High Street Update – Week of February 25

This is a quick update on the state of the High Street infrastructure and road repair project. The plan is to provide this kind of update every Friday, for what to expect the following week. Obviously, unforeseen issues can arise, and weather could always change the path, but we’ll continue to do our best to notify you of significant changes.

Ed Phillips will represent the city on-site every day, but you can also call the Department of Public Works if you notice any issues, or have questions. The number here is (410) 228-1955.

# # # Week of February 25, 2019 # # #

Work will continue February 25 through March 1, on the 300 block of High Street. In order to accommodate some scheduling for businesses located on this block, work is expected to be done on both the East and West Sides of the road, but one lane of traffic is expected to be open for much of the week. Early in the week, Monday and Tuesday, work is expected to be focused mainly on the part of this block closest to the Church Street intersection. Later in the week, work is expected to be focused closer to the Poplar Street intersection.

There is no loss of sewer, water, gas or electrical services expected next week. The Church and Poplar St. intersections are also expected to remain open.

We appreciate your continued patience as we complete this important project.
