Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
No final decision was made on selling, leasing, or expanding the property. The proposed article would allow those options while preserving an affordable-housing restriction, but Town Meeting would make the decision. Existing work is underway on the generator, elevator, community room, and air-conditioning unit, while broader improvements such as building-wide heating and cooling could depend on a future project.
