The fIrst closed Planning Board meeting has concluded and there is hope that all the work we have done over these many months might be shining through. Much was discussed and more has yet to be deliberated- yet, they are listening! The Chair was very well organized discussing the major themes by which they will make a final decision. The countless facts SCT&W provided over the past year were presented over and over again. We continue to be optimistic that our voices have been heard and that the land at 133 Essex may be spared from development.

The next meeting will be August 30th at 7PM. Stay positive. We have come this far and never would have achieved this outcry to protect these woods, wildlife, trails, water and ecosystem without YOU!

Again ...we say THANK YOU!

Team SCT&W
