At its meeting last night the selectmen created a committee to (1) study whether the town should create the Bay Colony Rail Trail and (2) make recommendations as to the issues involved. The issues are already well defined, but not all the answers are clear. It is hoped that the committee’s recommendation can be voted on at the town meeting in April.
Anyone interested in participating on the committee should advise Evelyn Clarke (eclarke@Medfield.net) of his/her interest before 11/15/11 when appointments to the committee will be made.
Ann Thompson opposed creating the committee, saying Medfield should first wait to see what Dover does at its town meeting in the spring, despite the fact that would postpone creation of the Bay Colony Rail Trail for another year (perhaps her real goal).
