On March 12th, 2014 the Hanson Community Preservation Committee will be holding its annual public Open Forum Meeting from 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm at Hanson Town Hall. We will be highlighting some of the projects that Hanson's CPA money funded in 2013 and discussing the CPC Master Plan that we are drafting in 2014. Committee members will be on hand to discuss the Community Preservation Act (CPA) and how CPA monies might benefit the housing, open space, historic preservation and recreational needs of Hanson. Potential grant applicants (particularly members of other town boards and committees) and the general public are encouraged to attend. This forum is a great opportunity to learn about CPA and the many ways it can be used to improve our town. The forum is also a meant to be a platform for providing feedback/suggestions to the
Committee for future projects. We would love to hear from you!!! Please email us at:cpchanson@gmail.com or call us at 781-293-5644 Ext 102 with any questions.
