Letter to the Editor: OSPC supports STM Article 5

by | Nov 13, 2024 | Letter to Editor

I write as chair of the Open Space Preservation Commission. Because of a prior contractual agreement, I will miss the upcoming Special Town Meeting. The Open Space Preservation Commission supports Article 5, to transfer care, custody and control of Hughes Farm parcels. The vice chair of the Commission, Steven Levandosky, will be available at the Special Town Meeting to respond to questions from citizens and/or town officials.

I ask for your support for Article 5.

— Edwin E Harrow, chair, Hopkinton Open Space Preservation Commission
