Boxford Votes Against Affordable Housing

The Tri-Town Transcript reports that at a recent Town Meeting, Boxford voted against the community/affordable housing use of Haynes land.  See NSAR blog article:  http://www.northshorerealtors.com/government_affairs/blog/252-affordable_housing_recreation_land_in_boxford

Boxford voters approved the conservation and recreation use for the Haynes land, but rejected the affordable housing component.

Also at the meeting, Boxford approved an $86,000 expenditure for the Border to Boston rail trail project for completion of the final design.  The rail trail includes roughly 2.3 miles of off-road trails along National Grid property/old railroad beds and 2 miles of onroad trail over Bare Hill Road, Olde Bare Hill Road and Pye Brook Lane.
