Natick Town Moderator Frank Foss has announced that the town’s 2020 Spring Annual Town Meeting (TM) is postponed to June 9 due to the challenges of keeping the 180 TM members the requisite six-feet apart to comply with social distancing practices.
Should TM goes forward on that date, it’s likely that participants will be masked up. Effective Wednesday, May 6, 2020, Governor Baker has issued an executive order requiring face masks or cloth face coverings in public places where social distancing is not possible. This applies to both indoor and outdoor spaces.
EVENT: Spring Annual Town Meeting
DATE: June 9, 2020
TIME: 7:30pm
LOCATION: Wilson Middle School, 22 Rutledge Rd., Natick

Keeping it up-to-date also makes Natick eligible for funding through grants.
