The proposed markers would make Concord’s Black residents’ history and abolitionist history more visible at locations along the established trail. The project has a tight timeline, with $28,000 required to be committed by the end of the fiscal year and a Select Board presentation expected in June. The commission also discussed the Assabet River Pedestrian Bridge’s historic-resource review and planning deadlines for updating the town’s preservation plan.
