Quincy council takes up surveillance rules, Granite Links lease
QUINCY ‒ City councilors on Monday, Nov. 9, will hold a public hearing on police surveillance technology and tackle a resolution urging state lawmakers not to extend Granite Links' lease of roughly 240 acres of public land into the 22nd century without more extensive financial analysis. The meeting begins at 6 p.m. with a public hearing on an ordinance proposed by Councilors Ziqiang Susan Yuan and Virginia Ryan that would require public input and council approval before the city adopts certain surveillance technologies, including automated license plate readers, facial recognition and systems that can track people or vehicles. The Ordinance Committee will take up the proposal at 6:30 p.m., and the full council could vote on the measure later in the evening. Councilors will also debate a resolution opposing efforts by state legislators to extend the Granite Links lease until 2107 through a rider to the 2026 supplemental appropriations bill, which is still pending on Beacon Hill. The measure calls for an independent financial analysis before the city makes a new long-term commitment involving roughly 240 acres of public land. Other agenda items include elected-official pay, cybersecurity oversight, a proposed independent whistleblower and anti-retaliation policy for city employees, and Mayor

NOAH celebrates the preservation of 111 affordable homes in Eastie
The Neighborhood of Affordable Housing (NOAH) gathered with partners, residents and advocates to acknowledge and celebrate everyone who helped NOAH preserve 111 units in 29 buildings in East Boston. NOAH has long been committed to acquiring small multifamily buildings in East Boston. For decades, East Boston’s triple-deckers and small multifamily buildings have provided homes for the working families and immigrants who have helped shape the neighborhood’s identity. As housing costs have risen, preserving these buildings has become increasingly important to protecting longtime residents from displacement. NOAH has been at the forefront of this work, acquiring properties and maintaining them as affordable housing rather than allowing them to be sold on the private market. Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, with the help of the Massachusetts Housing Partnership (MHP) and the City of Boston, NOAH acquired over 80 three-deckers. NOAH sold 42 of these to first time homebuyers and has since created an additional 37 first time homeownership units.
