LDNA Success!

Thanks to those of you who took the time to back up my efforts to push Millennium Partners for a contribution to our neighborhood clean-up fund with Project Place. Your emails helped the LDNA put the pressure on. As a result, we have reached an agreement with the Boston Redevelopment Authority ("BRA") whereby the LDNA will receive $5,000 per year for the next five (5) years for the LDNA sponsored neighborhood clean-up program run through Project Place. These funds will come from the community benefit funds paid by Millennium Partners to the BRA in connection with its development of the Teradyne Building. This was the right result and I thank Harry Collings from the BRA for making it happen. I also thank you for helping when I asked for your emails. By working together, our voices were heard! Regards, Chris Betke LDNAChair
