Attached are a series of letters starting on July 10, 2014, and ending on April 15, 2015, from the Office of the Board of Selectmen to various offices that generally and specifically deal with this Project. You will note that numerous concerns have been raised during the development of this project that still remain unresolved at this time. The project is too dense, exacerbates traffic congestion in the immediate area, adversely impacts upon the immediate residential neighborhood and provides no mitigation to the community. This project demonstrates everything that is wrong with the Chapter 40B program. I thought it appropriate to make these letters part of the record of this Project. I expect to have additional comments during the review process. Truly yours, Daniel J. Morgado Town Manager Richard D.

  • Governor Baker Declares March “Massachusetts Maple Month”
    Commonwealth of Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs Governor Charles D. Baker Lt. Governor Karyn E. Polito Secretary Matthew A. Beaton Press Release Contact: Katie Gronendyke — 617-626-1129 or [email protected] Governor Baker Declares March “Massachusetts Maple Month” BOSTON - March 1, 2016 – Governor Charlie Baker has declared March “Massachusetts Maple Month” in an effort to support the Commonwealth’s many maple producers and encourage Massachusetts residents to purchase locally-produced maple products. “Creating maple syrup is a time-honored Massachusetts tradition that the more than 300 maple syrup producers in the Commonwealth keep alive,” said Governor Charlie Baker. “I encourage residents to support our local maple syrup producers and purchase delicious Massachusetts maple products.” “The income of our dairy farms is supplemented by the production of maple syrup, making it not only the first agricultural crop of the season but also one of the most important,” said Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito. “By declaring March as Massachusetts Maple month, we hope everyone will take part in recognizing the importance of the Commonwealth’s maple producers.” “Maple syrup is an inherently sustainable agricultural product because healthy, well-maintained trees can be tapped for over 100 years,” said Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA) Secretary Matthew Beaton. “The Baker-Polito Administration is proud to recognize and support the maple syrup producers that help protect our environment and contribute to the Commonwealth’s vibrant agricultural and tourism industries.” Massachusetts is home to approximately 300 maple syrup producers, including many who are open to the public throughout the sugaring season.
