“There was a distance between you and I
A misunderstanding once
But now we look it in the eye” *1
Oh, how I wish that were the case.
Most problems are within our realm to correct. The problem resolution needs to start with a clear definition of the problem to be solved, a civil discussion around the proper, accurate data involved, and then the pros and cons of the choices to let the greater good prevail.
This first week of August 2025 has a light schedule of meetings. The Housing Authority has a special meeting to review a plan for the trees on their property. The Board of Health is scheduled to meet but they may not as there is not a published agenda at this time.
The Police Station Building Committee gets together on Wednesday to tour the existing facility. The public is welcome and there will be specific dates and times in September/October for the community to participate in a tour. Work is also underway on a video tour for those who may not be able to go in person.
The Conservation Commission has the first of its 2 scheduled August meetings on Thursday to close out this week of Town meetings.
