On the south end of town adjacent to the Park Lawn Cemetery is a 30 acre municipal forest called the "Y Woods." The town is looking at this resource and is calling for input from the community on its future.
A public meeting is scheduled for March 9, at 4:00 pm to discuss the Y Woods, hear from the community, and gather input for the creation of a management plan. The meeting will be held at the multi purpose room on the third floor at the Fire Facility on River Street.
The meeting will be broadcast live and recorded by CAT TV. The recording will be made available online, along with the ability for citizens to comment, to accommodate those unable to attend the meeting in person.
