Didn't see this in the Daily News today, but the City Council passed the Fruit Street Historic District last night. The Newburyport Blog is all over it.
I didn't attend the meeting. But Ward 3 City Councilor James Shanley says the vote was unanimous. Now all that's left is for John Moak and Shanley, as the sponsor, to sign it and make it law.
"I would like to say that the passage of this legislation is long, long overdue, and is an excellent starting point for the preservation of our most valuable cultural and economic resource," Shanley tells Newburyport Posts.
I hope so. It sounds like a reasonable measure to me.
