Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Halloween Candy Drive for the Troops!
Let Troop 82282 help you get rid of that leftover Halloween candy! Hanover
Girl Scout Troop 82282 is hosting their annual Halloween Candy Drive again
this year! The girls will package up all donated candy and bring to
Carepacks Inc., an organization based out of Weymouth that sends care
packages to deployed troops throughout the world. They encourage you to
send them your Halloween leftovers and make a donation to the Food Pantry,
in place of purchasing additional candy to donate!

When: Collecting donations from 10/31-11/8

Where: Leave donations in orange bins outside Sing Explore Create, 33
Rockland Street, Hanover

What: Accepting donations of candy (get rid of those Halloween leftovers!).
Candy should be individually wrapped, but sending along a random assortment
of trick or treat candy is welcome and encouraged! For example, does not
need to be an unopened bag of fun size candy bars, but can be the few you
may have leftover. They will be bagging and packaging it all up.

Questions? Reach out to Nicole at ncraven8@gmail.com or see the attached
flyer.

Thank you for your support of Troop 82282’s fall service project!

733 Hanover residents are slated to lose their Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits on November 1st (Saturday).

The Hanover Food Pantry would like to step up to help fill the need. Their
Facebook page is the best place to keep track of what they need and how to

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Each year we come together as a nation on Veterans Day to honor and
celebrate the hundreds of thousands of brave Americans who have served our
country in uniform. Now more than ever, our veterans need our support. In a
time when our country is divided on so many issues, we can surely all agree
that those individuals who risked everything to protect our country and our
way of life deserve our support and gratitude.

That’s why this year, the Hanover Woman’s Club Juniors and the American
Legion Post 149 Ladies Auxiliary are participating in “Operation Green
Light for Veterans”, an initiative designed to shine a light on the
service of our veterans and their families.

As part of Operation Green Light for Veterans, the Hanover Woman’s Club
Juniors and American Legion Post 149 Ladies Auxiliary will be illuminating
their homes green for the month of November and they encourage individuals
and businesses to join them by changing one light bulb in the entryway of
your house or business to a green bulb. By shining a green light, Hanover
residents let veterans know that they are seen, appreciated, and supported.

While this event is focused on Veterans Day and the month of November, the
Woman’s Club Juniors and the Ladies Auxiliary hope it sparks conversation
and encourages support for veterans year-round. This Veterans Day, join
them in shining a light of hope and support. Join Operation Green Light and
turn Hanover green for our veterans.

Green bulbs may be purchased at Curry Ace Paint and Hardware, Amazon, Home
Depot, Lowes and Walmart. For more information, please contact Jeanne
Cianciola at jcianciola@comcast.net or see the attached flyer.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

The Hanover Planning Board will hold a public hearing on Monday, October
20, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. to discuss the MBTA Housing Act and proposed zoning
amendments related to multi-family housing in Hanover.

• Date/time: Monday, October 20, 2025, 7:00 p.m.
• Location: Hanover Town Hall, 550 Hanover Street or via Zoom
• Agenda and Zoom access details may be found here:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=68KdOXjfC7WE/EnArQVus8X9Y8BuM6/Pp+HEqqMhWpZoqLt7nDOIRqoN783ZLADJ
. Please note that as of this writing, the public hearing is confirmed for
7:00 p.m., but that the Planning Board meeting looks like it will start
earlier than that to review other business. Keep an eye on the agenda for
any updates.

The purpose of the public hearing is to receive public comments and
testimony regarding proposed amendments to Hanover’s Zoning Bylaw, which
will be considered at a Special Town Meeting in December (details about
that meeting to follow – right here on Around Town on the Web!).

The following amendments have been submitted to the Select Board for
inclusion as articles on the warrant for consideration and action at the
Special Town Meeting. Following the hearing, the Planning Board will vote
on its recommendations for the Special Town Meeting Warrant articles.
• Establish an MBTA Overlay District allowing multi-family housing by
right within designated areas.
• Amend the Zoning Bylaw (Section 10) to align development standards for
the new district. See the current Zoning Bylaws here:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=j2F8sUcJht+Mg9Bk0fMEZMX9Y8BuM9/Pp+HEqqMhWpZoqLt7nDOYRqoN783ZLADJ
.
• Update the Official Zoning Map to include the new MBTA Zoning District
in compliance with the Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities
(EOHLC) model.

For more information, please e-mail joseph.stack@hanover-ma.gov .
