The carbon socks are intended to reduce ongoing pollution entering Pfister’s Pond from fertilizer runoff associated with the abutting golf club. The town is also weighing costly options for leaf composting after spending approximately $450,000 in the past year, more than double the anticipated $200,000. Residents will be encouraged to mulch or compost leaves at home to reduce collection costs.
