Solarize Somerville and other energy issues

[mem-winterhill.livejournal.com]

Quick update on the Solarize Somerville program, with a deadline notice. But there are 2 other things for folks that don't require you to own a sunny roof.

++++++++++++++++++++

We are up to 45 neighbors and 239 kW of solar power! Our goal of a donated array is in sight!

Coming up on a deadline: to get the pricing associated with the Solarize Somerville program, you need to complete your site visit by October 31. There are a couple of weeks after that to turn around the final paperwork. But if you've been musing about this, now's the time to schedule your visit. Just try it: there's no obligation, and you'll actually have the data to look at and decide. Go to our Solarize site and click the "Consultation" button to set this up. http://www.somervillema.gov/sustainaville/solarize.html

Honk Festival will close Elm Street in Davis Square on Saturday

[ron_newman]

According to email from the city, Elm Street will be closed from Dover St. to Cutter Ave. on Saturday from noon to 9 pm for the Honk! Festival.  In previous years, the street has remained open for the festival, but the city decided this year that the crowds of people would be safer without traffic.

As usual, the street will also be closed for the Honk! parade on Sunday, from 10 am to 1 pm.
