Governor Charlie Baker issued an emergency order requiring all businesses and organizations that do not provide “COVID-19 Essential Services” to close their physical workplaces and facilities to workers, customers and the public as of Tuesday, March 24th at noon until Tuesday, April 7th at noon. These businesses are encouraged to continue operations remotely.

____________________________

We would like to remind residents both who are connected to municipal sewer and those on septic systems, that only toilet paper should be flushed down the toilet.  Wipes of any type, even those that say they are "flushable", paper towels, cleaning rags, dental floss or other personal care items SHOULD NOT BE FLUSHED down the toilet.  These items do not dissolve quickly, or at all, in water and can clog your household plumbing, the pipes in the street, and critical equipment at our wastewater treatment plant.  They can also cause problems with your private septic system. 

 Please dispose of non-flushable items and other household waste properly.
