On the Millbury Board of Selectmen’s agenda for Tuesday, February 28, 2023, at 6:00 PM, is an agenda items for the Board to authorize Mary Krumsiek, Chairperson of the Millbury Board of Selectmen (and chief executive), to execute an application for the proposed Chapter 40B Local Initiative Program (LIP) project. In order for Steven F.
