An underlying theme of the international Park(ing) Day parks is the exploration of the fact that approximately 80% of the public space in an urbanized setting is the street, which is usually the exclusive domain of the automobile. If we want to enliven our streets and make more accommodation for people places, we might be able to find a way to share the valuable public space of the street.
Our goal is to enliven our commercial area and create fun interactive people spaces that make it enjoyable to spend time "in
the street". Brookline's Park(ing) Day is sponsored and supported by the Brookline Greenspace Alliance, Brookline Garden Club, Livable Streets, WalkBoston, Department of Public Works - Parks & open Space Division, Department of Public Works - Transportation Division, and the Brookline Transportation Board.

Note from the Chair:
The School Committee will be using a new arrangement of its docket items in order to allow meetings to begin earlier and to place less of a burden on staff who must stay late on meeting days. The start of our regular meeting will be 6 p.m. Our intention is to carry out administrative business in the first hour, including in most cases our consent agenda, subcommittee reports, and executive sessions when needed. We will continue to have public comment at or very near 7 p.m. and follow that with scheduled program reports, the Superintendent’s report, and related discussions. We hope everyone will find this arrangement satisfactory and an improvement for both the public and our hard-working PSB staff.
