Hopkinton Today: Thursday, Nov. 17

by | Nov 17, 2022 | 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 and video of the day.

The Conservation Commission at its meeting Tuesday night continued hearings on two cases it has been considering for several months: the Massachusetts Laborers Training Center property at 37 East Street and The Trails development.

Plans for an open space mixed-use development (OSMUD) at the site of a historic house at 83 East Main Street are moving forward after clarification from town officials that the developer already has a permit noting that the proper infrastructure exists for water and sewer to serve it. Developer Roy MacDowell hopes to begin construction in the late winter or early spring.

This week’s Police Log includes one arrest along with reports of a car hitting a deer, stolen jewlery and someone putting drugs in a resident’s mailbox.

Hopkinton’s Youth & Family Services is accepting grant applications from residents disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the town announced.

Town meetings tonight include the School Committee (7) and Community Preservation Committee (7)
