Zoning articles update

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

As you may know, there has been quite a bit of debate in town regarding the
zoning articles that are up for discussion at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, March
13th at the Planning Board meeting. See the previous e-mail that was sent
on ATOTW for additional information (go to the archives found here:
https://atotw.com/archive/ ) and search on “zoning”.

It appears as though the article to change the zoning at St. Mary’s has
been withdrawn. Go to
http://www.hanover-ma.gov/sites/hanoverma/files/agenda/agenda-file/agenda-3-13-2017_0.pdf
to see the change that is reflected on the agenda.

I also want to call your attention to the 6:00 p.m. Board of Selectman
meeting that is being held to “Review/Vote Annual and Special Town Meeting
Warrants”. Since the zoning articles are proposed to be on the warrant,
they may come up for discussion at 6:00 p.m., too.

Portland ship disaster

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

On Tuesday March 7 at 7:00 p.m., historian Art Milmore will present a talk

“Titanic”, the Portland sank twenty miles outside of Massachusetts Bay
killing all 192 people on board. The wreck was not discovered until 1989
and was conclusively proven to be the Portland in 2002. Mr. Milmore has
written a book, “And the Sea Shall Have Them All”, which will be available
for purchase and signing.

This program is sponsored by the Friends of the John Curtis Library. There
is no charge for admission. Refreshments will be served. The library is
