The Somerville City Council Legislative Matters Committee met June 30, 2026 (remote). Members reviewed housing measures (an early-leasing Home Rule petition and a notice-of-building-sale ordinance), debated an ethical procurement proposal, considered several surveillance-technology reports (smart-tree inventory, CrimeTracer/ScribeTracer, GrayKey questions), and continued a long discussion on body-worn cameras and related policies.
