Temper Your Applause
The Weymouth Town Council, as recommended by the Preservation Committee, recently approved the purchase of a tract of land located on the banks of the Back River, immediately adjacent to the Abigail Adams State Park. The Special Meeting was called strictly for the purpose of addressing any concerns residents might have had about the land purchase. There was a turnout of approximately 25 people who all appeared to be in favor of the Preservation Committee’s recommendation, some even commenting how this would have made the late Mary Toomey, who was instrumental in the protection of the Back River, very happy. There were several rounds of applause as residents and Council Members commented and finally approved the purchase.
