Good Turnout For Signatures — Part 2
We wanted to express a heartfelt thank you to all who came out today to sign the citizens petition to call a special town meeting. The response was overwhelmingly positive and nearly every single person signed the petition. What was clear is that residents want positive change in Millbury to regulate the development of the town so while it grows it retains its small town character. Many have not been pleased with recent residential development projects for one reason or another.

Pack Of Coyotes Spotted
A neighbor reported observing a pack of coyotes cross Aldrich Avenue (from west to east) heading over the banking down to the brook and behind 11 Thomas Hill Road, Wednesday evening at around 9:00 PM. People should be aware and use extreme caution in the neighbor to avoid one or more coyotes. When you see one, there are usually others around that are unseen.
Personal Responsibility
We all have it within ourselves the power to change our community's future through what we do each day. Life is a collection of choices. We can choose to roll up our sleeves and get our hands dirty, or take no action and hope someone else will change what we want for ourselves. Change happens because people make it happen.
