(Rowe, MA) The Town of Rowe will be holding a special town meeting on Thursday, November 3rd at the Rowe Elementary School Gymnasium, 86 Pond Road, at 6 p.m.
On the warrant for the meeting is a vote on authorizing the town to negotiate and enter into payment in lieu of tax for a five year term with Bear Swamp Power Company and Great River Hydro who have appealed the valuation of their facilities. The town vote is a formality on this matter as the town has already entered into negotiations with the companies.
