OPINION: Protect Wareham’s and Onset’s drinking water
Wicked Local
Greetings fellow citizens. I write to you today to correct some misinformation in an opinion piece in the Wareham Courier regarding the proposed rezoning article to be considered by Wareham voters at a Special Town Meeting this Saturday, April 10, (“Opinion: Selectman Teitelbaum says beware of misinformation” April 6).
As a citizen of this Town and Wareham Land Trust president, I attended every Planning Board meeting regarding the proposed rezoning of East Wareham since the meetings began on Nov. 30, 2020 and I have submitted letters expressing our concerns to the Board of Selectmen and the Planning Board. By attending all these Planning Board meetings, I have seen this proposal change from acreage that was roughly one quarter of the town (from Charge Pond Road and Route 25 north and east to Plymouth) to 963 acres and now to 756 acres.
