The Town of Westwood's schedule for disposing of holiday cardboard and trees was announced at Select Board's last meeting as the following:
From 7:00 am. to 3:00 p.m. on any date in the periods of December 26th through December 29th & January 2nd through January 5th, Westwood residents can drop off their holiday cardboard at 50 Carby Street in the town's cardboard-only dumpster.
This recycling drop-off opportunity is only for cardboard and excludes trash, wrapping paper, packing peanuts, or other contaminants.
From January 2nd through January 12th, residents can place Christmas trees curbside by their homes at 7:00 a.m. on their scheduled trash collection date. To be accepted for pickup, trees must be free of plastic, tinsel, stands, and other materials.
I completely agree. Washington St. also has some terrible patches, especially the handicap ramps. I don’t understand why the DPW is responsible for clearing sidewalks in front of homes and businesses. It seems that those should be the responsibility of the property owner.
The sidewalks on High Rock and Hartford have been pretty treacherous this winter too. I didn't contact DPW about it though.
Cloudy , with a high of 41 and low of 26 degrees. Overcast during the morning, sunny in the afternoon, partly cloudy during the evening, overcast overnight.
A true hero, though I'm not sure about the naming of the intersection after him. We already have a school named after him. Is there no one else who dedicated their life to this Town that the intersection could be named in memory of?
Thanks for the comment. Perhaps other candidates for a named intersection might be considered by the Select Board if presented with a petition or similar process as what was used here.
