It’s been about a month since I posted one. So, it’s time for another open thread.
What’s on your mind this week, Southborough?
For those of you new to the blog, the open discussion thread is your place to ask questions, sound off on town issues, or share information with other readers. Here are some suggestions to get you started:
- Ask questions about programs in town or the town itself
- Post a note about things that you’re selling or giving away, or things that you want
- Share notices about upcoming events (Southborough or otherwise)
- Register your thoughts on town issues or news stories
- Point out interesting or helpful resources
You can add comments to the thread throughout the week. Check back often to see new comments. (If you read the blog via email or RSS, you might want to check the site from time to time for new comments.)

does anyone know what is the big construction project on school street, sort of behind southborough medical, near the st mark’s maintenance garages? there are huge cranes and trucks full of concrete pieces/pipes there lately….
Someone asked about this land in an earlier open thread this summer. Here’s what I found out.
The property is adjacent to St. Mark’s small field, but not owned by them.
I asked Building Commissioner Mark Robidoux about what is going on there. He responded, “This is privately owned land , there is a sewage treatment plant that they have completed and are now installing solar arrays on top to provide power to 24 newton st. This project received Federal approvals back in 2009″
