COALITIONS WADE INTO BOSTON MAYORAL RACE — A new coalition launching today hopes to put climate resiliency, economic vitality and other issues affecting Boston’s waterfront at the forefront of the city’s municipal races this year.
The Coalition for a Resilient and Inclusive Waterfront — a Barr Foundation Boston Waterfront Initiative grant-funded effort that includes Boston Harbor Now, the Black Economic Council of Massachusetts, Boston Children’s Museum, NAACP Boston Branch and other neighborhood and conservancy groups — aims to educate candidates and voters on issues facing the city’s harbor, islands and other waterways.
