The town's most actionable heads-up this cycle: the Transfer Station will be closed on Independence Day, July 4th, and residents are encouraged to plan their waste drop-offs around the holiday.

TOWN HALL

The town posted a reminder Tuesday that the Transfer Station will not be open on Friday, July 4th. Residents who normally make a holiday-week run should adjust their schedules and plan trips before or after the closure. No alternate hours were announced. Full details are posted at the town's alert page: https://www.spencerma.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?aid=48

Separately, the town homepage notes two other recent items without full detail in this cycle's feeds: a notice related to the Spencer Rescue Squad and an announcement that the town has settled a lawsuit with Massachusetts Broken Stone. Neither item carried expanded text in today's feed.

The next scheduled public meeting on the calendar is the Board of Selectmen meeting on Monday, June 29.
