Hopkinton Today: Thursday, March 28

by | Mar 28, 2024 | Featured: Features, Hopkinton Today

Good morning, Hopkinton! Welcome to the daily update we call Hopkinton Today — a quick recap of yesterday’s news, highlights of what’s on tap, and a photo of the day.

Former Select Board chair Brian Herr recently made the decision to return to politics, announcing his run for one of the two open seats on the Select Board.

The Select Board at its meeting Tuesday night heard about the weed management plan for Lake Maspenock, which includes the use of two herbicides.

The Conservation Commission met for only about 30 minutes Tuesday due to hearing cancellations, shifting its focus to work session items. The major topic of discussion was 1 Foxhollow Road, a single-family home located within a subdivision.

This week’s Police Log includes reports of a fence blown over by wind at the Fruit Street fields, an intoxicated man who had to be taken to the hospital, and a hit and run on Main Street.

Our latest Professional Insights offers advice on how to best perform a spring cleaning.

Town meetings tonight include the Commission on Disability (7).
