NA Smart 911 Alert: Storm Update, 9/11/23

Sarah Brush

Dear Neighbors,

Thank you for your continued patience as we clean up from the storm.

The Town is in constant contact with National Grid. There are still approximately 700 residences without power.

Please continue to use caution when traveling in town. National Grid crews are throughout the community and the Town is actively working to remove downed public shade trees from the right of way. Any private trees that have fallen into the right of way will be removed up to the property line. Please do not bring brush/tree debris to the curb as the Town can not be picking up private property debris. Thank you for helping us to keep sidewalks safe for pedestrians.

The Cyr Center on Sharpners Pond Road will be open Monday-Saturday through 9/23/23 and residents may bring debris at no charge.

Burning is not yet allowed and burning season does not begin until January 1. A permit is required for burning.

The Red Cross shelter located at the new senior center is still open. The library is open. If you need anything, please do not hesitate to reach out at townmanager@northandoverma.gov.

Stay safe,

Melissa

Reminder | Public Meeting: MBTA Communities – September 13, 2023

Sarah Brush
The Town invites the public to join a discussion with the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission (MVPC) about new State-mandated regulations that require many cities and towns in eastern Massachusetts, including North Andover, to create a zoning district that allows as of right multi-family housing.  As of right zoning requires proposed projects to be reviewed by the Planning Board under a plan review process, as opposed to a more discretionary special permit process.
MVPC will present information about these regulations and we will discuss how the Town can comply with this new statute as well as answer questions.  Questions?  Contact Jean Enright in the Planning Department: 978-688-9535.
