Westford Community Access Television (WestfordCAT)

Wondering how to dispose of unwanted household items and waste? Join the League of Women Voters of Westford on Wednesday, May 20, for an informative and interactive session to learn the best options for waste disposal and recycling right here in Westford. Three members of the Westford Recycling Commission – Kristina Greene, Elizabeth Sawyer, and Nupur Patel – will share practical tips, helpful resources, and easy ways to reduce waste before Pay As You Throw begins on July 1.
The League’s Civic Social is part of an ongoing conversation about ways to help residents think about what they bring into their homes and how to then dispose of what they no longer need or use. Attendees are encouraged to bring a list of items/questions and get answers in real time. Residents will learn how small changes can make a big difference, both for residents’ budgets and for the planet. For more information about the Westford Recycling Commission, check out the group’s website at <a href="https://westfordma.gov/408/Westford-Recycling-Commission-WRC" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://westfordma.gov/408/Westford-Recycling-Commission-WRC</a>.
The Civic Social will be held at WestfordCAT, 487 Groton Road, at 7:30 p.m. No registration necessary. Civic Socials are in-person only and are not recorded.&nbsp;
Civic Socials are the League’s informal monthly get-togethers, open to everyone, where people can learn what’s happening in and around town and about what the League is doing. The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan, issues-oriented organization – open to all – that encourages informed and active participation in government. The League does not support or oppose any candidate or political party.&nbsp; For more information about the League, go to <a href="https://lwv.westford.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://lwv.westford.org/</a>.

Thinking about adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or an in-law apartment to your property? 
An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) or in-law apartment can mean a lot of things. A place for aging parents to live independently but close by. A landing pad for an adult child. A future rental. A flexible space that adapts as life does. Whatever's drawing you to the idea, the questions tend to be the same: Is it allowed where I live? How much will it cost? Where would it even go? And how do I make sure it actually works?
Join us in the showrooms of the <a href="https://www.nashuahomedesigncenter.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Nashua Home Design Center</a> for a relaxed, conversational morning with David Bryan, President &amp; CEO, and Gates Bryan, Design Specialist, of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.blackdogbuilders.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">Blackdog Design/Build/Remodel</a>. Between them, they've helped countless New Hampshire and Massachusetts families think through these exact decisions, and they'll share what works, what doesn't, and what to think about before you start.What We’ll Cover:
<ul><li>What an ADU actually is, and what your town will (and won't) allow, between location, access, size, and utilities</li><li>The design constraints worth knowing about early</li><li>How to make an ADU feel like a natural extension of your home, not an addition tacked on</li><li>The family side of the conversation: finances, life changes, and how today's design should anticipate tomorrow's needs</li><li>Permitting in southern New Hampshire, and how the rules vary town to town</li><li>What it really takes to generate rental income from an ADU</li><li>The factors that genuinely move the needle on construction costs</li><li>How to choose the right people to work with</li><li>Smart, practical kitchen and bath design for smaller footprints</li></ul>
Come with questions. Leave with clarity, and a much better sense of what's possible on your own property!
Space is limited to 20 guests, so we keep things small&nbsp;enough for real conversation.
