At the recent Board of Selectmen’s meeting, Chairman McEttrick and her colleagues encouraged residents to send in their thoughts and ideas regarding the East Milton Library and the Stoughton Land. The East Milton Library is costing the town about $6,000 a year to maintain. The Selectmen are eager to find tenants.

There are two schools that have looked at the space. One is the Campbell School. There are also a couple of businesses that have looked at the space. The property only has approximately 7 parking spaces, so is limited in that regard. Any business would require a variance to the zoning.

They will also be hearing from Paul Krasinski a resident who is proposing a farm based educational center for the Stougthon Land at their 9/16 meeting. They are open to other ideas for use of the land which was left by Governor Stoughton for the benefit of the poor of Milton.

The Selectmen welcome all comments on ideas and impacts. You can attend the 9/16 meeting or contact them directly. You can find their contact info here.
