W’town Town Manager wants you to “Share Your Thoughts on Recreational Needs”

Town Hall asks: “Do you have recommendations for how we can improve our existing parks and recs offerings in Williamstown? If so, email to the Town Manager at: rmenicocci@williamstownma.gov.”

In conjunction with recommendations from the 2016 PARC, the 2016 Open Space Plan, and recently completed Envision Williamstown 2035 master plan, the town manager has assembled a Parks and Recreation Task Force. The Task Force seeks further feedback from town residents, particularly from people of color, non-child-raising adults, or people who did not feel they had a chance to respond earlier. The group also welcomes input from all residents who would like to comment further on recreation opportunities in Williamstown
