I'm in a bit of a quandary and after a review of tagged posts as well as perusing the Somervillema.gov parking enforcement website, I'm stumped for a solution.

Problem: I'm going on vacation Sept 1 for 2 weeks. My plan was to take a cab to Logan (6am flight) and the T back to Davis on my return, but this requires me finding a place to park the car. I no longer have a local person who I can give a key and ask to move my car every couple of days to avoid street cleaning and the uncommon, yet still existent, 48hr limit.

Possible solutions:
1) Park at airport - At $18 a day, this would cost me ~$250.
2) Prepay parking at Alewife T station - At $5 a day, this wouldn't be as painful (~$70), but I'm not sure they will let me park there that many days.
3) ???

Others must find themselves in this same predicament (especially students who don't know local people and fly home/away for extended periods of time). Is there another option I'm missing?

According to the city website, the city will show Madagascar outdoors next Tuesday at dusk. The event will take place at Hodgkins Park on Holland Street.

Not many Davis Square folks read the Herald, but you might want to check out today's article on mayoral candidate Rick Scirocco. Not very flattering.

The preliminary election is Tuesday, September 25. Mayor Joe Curtatone (campaign website; city website) has two challengers, Scirocco and Suzanne Bremer, a Tufts University librarian.

Ward 6 alderman Rebekah Gewirtz (whom I strongly support) also has two challengers, Charles Chisholm and Bob Adams. The top two finishers in each race will advance to the final election on November 6.
