• Central Mass. legislators push back on Amazon drone proposal (masslive.com) — Amazon's proposed drone delivery program from its Westborough center would serve Berlin along with several neighboring towns, prompting local legislators to demand a pause. They're asking Amazon and Westborough's Planning Board to resolve concerns about noise, flight paths, privacy, safety, and environmental impacts before any approval, which could affect how packages reach Berlin homes in the near future.
