Hopkinton Today: Wednesday, April 5

by | Apr 5, 2023 | 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.

Leading off the Select Board roundup, the town’s efforts to eliminate PFAS from the water supply continue to get more expensive, while questions about where the chemicals originated continue to surface without any concrete answers.

The Planning Board at its meeting Monday night voted 8-0 to approve two longstanding projects — The Trails and the Grasshopper solar farm — after the respective applicants agreed to several conditions.

Town leaders from Hopkinton have invited their counterparts from Ashland to a reception at the Hopkinton Center for the Arts on Thursday night to “acknowledge, honor and celebrate” Ashland’s role in the race’s history.

This week’s Real Estate Transactions show a flurry of activity, with nine properties being sold in the last three days of March.

The town reminded residents of its annual state of water supply conservation from May 1 through Sept. 30, pursuant to the town’s water use restriction bylaw.

Photo of the Day: The Swoon Spring Fashion Show, an annual fundraiser for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and GirlyGirl PARTS, was held Monday and Tuesday nights at Central Public House.
