The Habitat house being built by Westwood residents and volunteers, at the corner of Highview Street and Burgess Avenue in Westwood, is taking shape. The floor is in. The first floor walls are up. Passersby can start to better imagine what the house will look like, and how it will blend in with the other capes in the neighborhood.
This Saturday, July 31, 2021, is the next scheduled build day. Another 6 volunteers and a site manager will work together to add to the construction.
Volunteers are still needed for upcoming Saturday build days on August 7, 14, and 28. To volunteer for this South Shore Habitat for Humanity build, click here.
Yay Westwood! To look up whether specific items are recyclable in our carts (only clean paper, cardboard, bottles, cans and rigid containers), check out the searchable Recyclopedia here https://recyclesmartma.org/
Has there been a breakdown of how much of the contaminated recycling comes from commercial vs. residential recycling bins?
Sunny, with a high of 59 and low of 35 degrees. Sunny in the morning, clear in the afternoon and evening,
The rebooted project has been described as about 20 percent smaller in square footage and about $1.62 million or 4 percent less expensive than the prior proposal, using dollars not adjusted for inflation.…. Is this really better?
No. But it’s only going to get worse. Just like it would have been better to build a combined station. Let’s just vote Yes before it gets any worse.
Get worse? It did. This latest plan is a farce. 40,000,000? So much for the steering committee doing their research. Anybody take the time to read the opponent's reference in the question #10 mailing from the town? His example being what thery did in Rockland? About what we could get for so much less.
