Special to The Landmark
PRINCETON With sweeping views towards the Boston skyline, ringed by historic homes and crowned by Bagg Hall and the town library, the Town Common has been a point of civic pride for hundreds of years.
At a meeting Feb. 9, members of the Select Board and Historical Commission agreed to review language for a proposed policy outlining acceptable landscaping and permanent features for the publicly owned piece of land in the town’s Historic District.
The Historical Commission favors maintaining the current shrubs and trees on the common, but would not want to add more, according to member Matt Lindberg.
