The first photos from Westwood Community Chest's Luminary Night are coming in, proof that despite a light snowfall, tonight is still a good time to unite and light up the town! If anything, the light snowfall complements the picturesque scene of warm luminary lights lining walkways and houses lit up with holiday lights.
If you have pictures to share, please post! Or send them to WestwoodInAMinute@gmail.com, with a note stating whether you would like a photo credit or not, or if you have any thoughts to share about the experience!

Sunny, with a high of 91 and low of 63 degrees. Sunny for the morning, partly cloudy in the afternoon and evening, clear overnight.
This needed to happen 5 years ago. But now the real wrangling begins as MPT will fight to get as much $$$ as they can from the state as possible”just compensation.”
I appreciate all of the work and time that the FS1 Steering Committee and Select Board have put into this process. I've also noticed a big difference in communication around this from the town on Facebook and Westwood Wire. This feels like a much different process than the first time around.
Combing the FS1 vote with the general election makes a ton of sense, and in fact, makes me wonder why not do this will ALL elections instead of holding town elections in April?
Just a reminder that you can e-mail the FS1 Committee at FS1Committee@westwoodma.gov with questions/feedback, etc.
Two different votes for the Project?
First one in October for 'site selection, budget, and funding sources' for a new FS1.
Then, a November vote for 'designing, constructing, equipping, and furnishing' of a new FS1.
Seems repetitive.
