City Council Candidate Responses to Harry Mattison's Questionnaire

Earlier this summer, Harry Mattison of the Allston-Brighton Community Blog sent the City Council candidates (both A-B District 9 and At-Large) a questionnaire focusing on issues important to Allston (as well as Brighton):

1. Do you support the creation of a Boston Planning Department?
   
2. Should height limits in the North Allston Strategic Framework be strictly applied to Harvard’s proposed buildings?
   
3. Should City Council approval be required before a university can purchase property in Boston?
   
4. What are your thoughts about a possible Charlesview relocation?
   
5. What should be the future of the Speedway property on Western Ave?
   
6. How do you feel about the vacant Harvard-owned properties in North Allston and North Brighton?
