COVID Case Update
Positive cases in Chelsea blew up in the days after Thanksgiving with a huge spike in cases, registering 376 positive cases of COVID-19 between Nov. 30 and Dec. 6. That was more than double the amount of cases in the previous week, which was 149. That said, the early week numbers were a bit lower, with 16 cases on Dec. 6, and 29 on Dec. 7.
Route 1 Housing Program
In an effort to enhance and preserve the quality of the existing housing supply in the City of Chelsea, the City has premiered the Route 1 Housing Enhancements Program.
The Program provides assistance to homeowners seeking to address sound attenuation, air quality improvements, and exterior repairs. Targeting properties adjacent to Route 1, the Program strives to mitigate the adverse public health effects caused by Route 1, including, but not limited to, noise pollution, degraded air quality, and property damage that occurred during recent state construction.
