(Montague, MA) — The town of Montague has set a date for its fall special town meeting, which will be held in the town’s newest municipal building.
The meeting will take place on October 13th inside the truck bay of the town’s recently constructed highway garage. Montague Town Administrator Steve Ellis says the bay is open on either side, and will allow for proper ventilation and space for town meeting members to safely remain socially distant.
The facility is still being constructed, but Ellis says the proper utilities and other necessary infrastructure will be in place by meeting night. A number of financial articles are expected to be on the warrant, some of which had to be passed over during the recent annual town meeting because of incomplete state budget figures, which have been delayed due to the recent pandemic.
