Want to serve on the Greenway's new board of directors? It'll cost you

NorthEndWaterfront.com reports on a letter the Rose Kennedy Greenway has sent to neighborhood groups that were expected to name representatives to a new Greenway board of directors - which calls on those reps to pledge at least $5,000 each in fundraising. Although fundraising expectations for non-profit directors is common, the site notes that the legislators who helped write the law expanding board membership intended for it to increase neighborhood participation, not raise funds.
