3 February 2003
ARRPAC community forum
Agassiz School (20 Child St, Jamaica Plain)
7-9 PM

ARRPAC will be holding its 2nd public forum on February 3rd, to get community feedback on the current proposal for station locations on the new Green Line service to Jamaica Plain. Unlike ARRPAC's working group meetings, the primary purpose of these community forums is to get feedback from the community, and much of the time will be devoted to hearing public comments. Therefore, this is a particularly good event to attend.

We remind you that ARRPAC has no influence on the question of whether Green Line service is restored to Jamaica Plain. We are an advisory committee providing community input on engineering issues to the MBTA. Since limited time is available at this forum, we will need to keep discussion focused on the specific issue of advice to the MBTA regarding station locations.

  • Power substation location review
  • Initial traffic simulation discussion
  • Track maintenance and snow removal discussion

The public is welcome to attend. Formal comments are limited to a 10-minute period at the start of the meeting, but you may also speak informally to ARRPAC members after the meeting.

18 December 2002: ARRPAC/MBTA Public Hearing on Station Locations

December 18 (Wednesday)
7 to 9 PM
Agassiz School
20 Child St (Jamaica Plain)

On December 18, ARRPAC presented a summary of preliminary design concepts generated by the committee, including a draft version of recommended station locations. The primary purpose of this meeting was to introduce the draft proposal to the community, disuss the factors we have considered, and start getting community feedback regarding these concepts. A second meeting will be held to continue this discussion. ARRPAC will revise their recommendations to the MBTA on the basis of community feedback at these two meetings. Therefore, to have a say on where Green Line stations are placed in Jamaica Plain, please attend these meetings and tell us what you think.
