Oakland Garden forum item divides Boston aldermen
The Boston Board of Aldermen narrowly approved ordering the Finance Committee to fund in a future loan a sum to purchase Oakland Garden for a forum with price to be settled by arbitration. Debate highlighted labor rights, Franklin Park land, and opposition from Alderman Lewis and Meyer. The vote 6 to 5 followed a longer discourse on park use and public space for laborers.
