September 1 is approaching, which means moving season is upon us. If you’re getting ready to move, here are some reminders and resources to help make the process go smoothly: 

Get a Permit for Your Moving Van 
You can apply for a moving van permit and pay to reserve a parking spot before you move. Permits cost $40 per day for up to three days, and parking signs cost $5. If there’s a meter, you’ll need to pay an additional $35 per day to reserve the spot.

The City of Somerville is updating its climate action plan, Climate Forward, and Mayor Katjana Ballantyne is calling on community members to get involved.

Mayor Katjana Ballantyne and the City of Somerville invite community members to provide public comments about rent stabilization at a third and final listening session. The City hosted two listening sessions last month and is holding a third session for anyone who was unable to attend earlier or has additional comments. The City has also extended the written comment period through September 10.
