Today's riddle: Where do math teachers go on vacation? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Additional West Nile Virus-Positive Mosquito Sample Detected in Falmouth (einpresswire.com) — Another mosquito sample near Woods Hole Road in Falmouth has tested positive for West Nile virus, and county health officials are urging residents to stay vigilant about mosquito protection through September. They recommend repellents, long sleeves, and eliminating standing water around homes while Cape Cod Mosquito Control continues targeted treatments and offers help to residents seeing unusually high mosquito activity.
• Page F11 (capenews.net) — Falmouth's Planning Board has delayed a decision on a controversial 44-space school bus lot in North Falmouth until October 13, frustrating neighbors who have organized strong opposition. The board also approved a new 34-room hotel at 28 Falmouth Heights Road and greenlit solar arrays at Church of the Messiah, while continuing work on town-specific design guidelines for mixed-use districts.
• See red-robed performers who crossed the Bourne Bridge during Labor Day traffic (capecodtimes.com) — A Falmouth climate organizer joined the Red Rebel Brigade's slow, silent march across the Bourne Bridge on Friday to reach Labor Day motorists. The performance, backed by Extinction Rebellion and Sierra Club members, protested plans to replace two existing fracked gas pipelines under the Cape bridges with a single, much larger line buried beneath the canal.
