We will be starting on Hayden Rowe and working our way South and then East via Chestnut starting in the Briarcliff area working toward Alprilla Farm. After that section is complete, we will send out a notice and begin to head through the Springwood development. As this is going to be a major flushing effort and we could encounter unforeseen issues, we are not sure how far we are going to make it each day. Because the daily flushing will be all in the general vicinity, there is a chance there could be discoloration on several days and not just as we are in specific neighborhoods.
This past week Hopkinton Hiller Boys Basketball, Girls Basketball and Boys Hockey competed in the MIAA State Tournament. Girls Indoor Track and Field and Cheerleading had good showings at championship meets.

The Zoning Advisory Committee is a nine-member board appointed by the Planning Board, typically with representatives from the Planning Board, Conservation Commission, Chamber of Commerce and the Board of Appeals, as well as At-Large positions. The Committee meets one or two times a month, usually on Monday evenings.
The purpose of the Zoning Advisory Committee is to review and develop proposals for zoning bylaw and zoning map amendments, and make recommendations to the Planning Board. Zoning bylaws generally regulate the use of land, buildings, and structures.
As discussed in our fall notification, the town has developed the first portion of our unidirectional flushing program. Now that consistently warmer temperatures have arrived, in an effort to improve water quality and reduce water discoloration instances, the town will be conducting systematic hydrant flushing in the Hayden Rowe, Chestnut, Thayer Heights, Front Street and Springwood areas. Flushing is anticipated to begin March 11-22, weather pending. The flushing will take place 9AM-2PM.
