Westwood resident Cate Herndon, a senior at Endicott College, has been named to the Conference New England (CNE) Community Service Team, announced Endicott Athletics and Recreation on November 19, 2024. Ms. Herndon received the award which is given to one student athlete per institution, who demonstrates commitment to their community. This award replaces the Team Sportsmanship award.
Ms. Herndon is a member of the Endicott Gulls Women's Cross Country Team. In both 2022 and 2023, she earned CCC Academic All-Conference recognition.
The Gulls finished fifth at the CNE Championship and 14th at NCAA DIII East Regionals.
Partly Cloudy , with a high of 36 and low of 20 degrees. Partly Cloudy during the morning, overcast for the afternoon, clear overnight.
This is progress and I am glad to see the Select Board moving in the right direction. However, a majority of voters at last Monday's Special Town Meeting voted to recommend that the Select Board immediately cease its lawsuit against the Westwood Land Trust.
What is the citizen's petition about? I checked the town website, and the only information I could find on town meeting articles was from last year. The public hearing dates for 2026 are posted as February 24-25.
Apparently, you need to submit a public records request through the town's FOIA portal. What a shame, since it should have been posted to the town website upon certification of petition signatures.
Westwood Minute has obtained a copy of the petition and has added a short description of it to the article. A copy of the petition is attached below the article.
