BOSTON – Boston City Councilor Ed Flynn will host his annual Community Preservation Act (CPA) Information Session in partnership with the CPA Team on Wednesday, July 16th at 6:00pm virtually via Zoom. This session is an opportunity to explore how residents can apply for CPA funds to create impactful projects in their communities related to affordable housing, historic preservation, and open space. Councilor Flynn is calling on neighbors and community organizations to apply this summer and ensure that District 2 also receives its fair share of CPA funding this coming round and beyond.

Councilor Flynn encourages residents to spread the word to friends, neighbors, and community organizations who may be interested in learning more at this meeting and applying for CPA funding in advance of the August 29th, 5pm deadline.
