Dave Atkins' points, and overall perspective on Article 21 are spot on!
People’s natural tendency to resist change is unfounded; far, far more often than not. Dave doesn’t go back as far as the opposition to Westwood Station, but the list of adverse impacts to schools, traffic, crime, culture, community were numerous. None have come to pass.
I hope many will come to Town Meeting to support Article 21 and others.

Light rain, with a high of 77 and low of 66 degrees. Light rain for the morning, overcast overnight.
We used to spray our lawn with a company that said they used non-toxic chemicals. The loss of bees, frogs, pollinators and birds in our garden was dramatic.
Great topic! I'd love to see more from the environmental action committee on encouraging less use of pesticides/weed killers/fertilizers in town.
what a great way to encourage people to plant native, it gives me so much pleasure to see who is visiting my plants.
