NSTAR To Discuss Tree Removal, Vegetation Plan for Needham Right of Way
The Board of Selectmen invite members of the public to come hear the plans at their meeting on Tuesday, July 10 at 7:45 p.m.
The Needham Board of Selectmen will hold a public information session on Tuesday, July 10 regarding NSTAR's maintenance and landscaping of right of way routes in town.
"The purpose of the meeting is to allow representatives from NSTAR to outline their plans for managing growth, including the possible removal of trees, near the electric transmission lines within their Right-of-Way (ROW)," according to an announcement posted Monday on the town website, needhamma.gov.
In Needham, NSTAR’s electric transmission line generally follows the railroad tracks from the Dover line to the West Roxbury line.
The public information session will be held at 7:45 p.m. in the second-floor Powers Hall at Needham Town Hall.
Residents will be given the opportunity to ask questions about the proposed work during the session, which will be held as part of the board's regular July meeting.
Needham selectmen meet only once in July and August. Regular meetings are scheduled for Tuesday, July 10 and Tuesday, Aug. 14 at 7 p.m.
