“Envisioning Future Holliston” (previously known as Comprehensive Long Range Planning Committee), was created from a Citizen’s Petition at the May 2021 Spring Town Meeting. This petition was born out of a need to have a Vision and out of that Vision, one comprehensive plan that links together the policies, plans and studies from the many Holliston boards and committees. The intent of the petition is to have Town Meeting (the townspeople) own this initiative and see it through to fruition.
This communication includes an update and a request for resident input.

Moderator William Mayer (top row right below) called the meeting to order at 7:40 pm once a quorum of residents was confirmed by Town Clerk, Elizabeth Greendale (second from right at top below).
