📰 News we're reading
• August Brings Snow Cost Relief (town.news) — Millbury residents may see indirect benefits from a new statewide reform limiting how snow and ice removal contracts can shift liability between towns and contractors. Backed by Sen. Michael Moore of Millbury, the measure aims to reduce insurance costs and keep more small plow operators in business, helping communities across Massachusetts secure reliable winter road and sidewalk clearing.
