The Lowell Sun reports that we are once again afraid that we will not meet a Town Meeting quorum next week.
With very few items on the warrant, there is little to draw people out other than the feasibility study article.
Finance committee chair Gary Marsella spoke with us last Saturday on 980 WCAP about discussions that [...]

A reminder that today is Make a Difference Day, and the Dracut Food Pantry is working hard to make a difference in our community.
For those looking to make a food donation, there are still drop-off boxes throughout the town (fire stations, etc).. and if you want to make a cash donation you can mail a [...]

A reminder, because I’m sure we all already know about this..
The Dracut Scholarship Foundation Craft Fair is this Saturday at the High School. 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Good cause, lots of booths, get your Christmas Shopping started early.

In a quest to rally an army of support, the leaders of the school administration and school committee have been going to every school function.. curriculum nights and PTO meetings to expain the dire need for updates to the high school.
And they’ve done a good job.
The catwalk needs repairs, the windows leak, the gym and [...]

Question 2 on November’s ballot, being overshadowed by the income tax question, could be a first step in our state towards making a true change in this endless, expensive, losing [...]

DRACUT – Without any major food drives since the spring, the Dracut Food Pantry Board of Directors is sponsoring a food drive on nationwide “Make a Difference Day”, Saturday, October 25.
The drive will take place as the pantry is open for Dracut families in need, meaning that as the shelves dwindle from the more than 100 families expected, the people [...]

The Town Clerk has posted the Nov 3 Town Meeting Warrant on the town website.
I notice a couple returns from the spring town meeting, a request to add or increase the fee to tax demands (probably ok, but I hate to add new fees and taxes), the school feasibility study item is there…
But what is [...]

I’m not sure where this will go.
The Dracut Police will now do an investigation of the missing drugs from years ago.
Hopefully, they will come to some conclusion.
Rumors have floated for years, many are adamant that there are no Dracut Police involved.
I think its too late to prove either way.
The whole thing makes Dracut look bad, [...]
