This project is a $2.5 million town center sewer system and facility upgrade, which was approved by Town Meeting voters in August.
The ceremony gathered two dozen attendees including:
- Wayne Perry, Associate, engineer at Norfolk Ram Group
- Jennifer Bensen, State Representative
- David Ankener and Dave Boyer of the Department of Environmental Protection
- Chris Ashley, chairman of the current sewer building committee
- Tim Clark, Selectman
Ricciardi Brothers was selected as the general contractor for the project.
Weekly, meetings have been organized weekly to review progress with engineers, town officials, department heads, and contractor representatives.
