(April 5, 2021 / JNS) The Boston suburb of Sharon, Mass., has become the first municipality in the state to adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) Working Definition of Antisemitism, after a push by local activists.
In a unanimous decision, the Select Board of Sharon adopted the measure at its March 23 meeting, after community activists Susan Price and Robert Soffer presented the motion to the select board in February.

Sharon Green Condominium association is now trying to make all.
Sharon Green Condominium association is now trying to make all 160 units a 55+ community. The town should be outraged. If condo owners don t like anyone under 55 then MOVE. The town should rally and the condo owners should vote to get these haters out of the association.The children are our future. This is the same bunch of clowns who failed to pass a no smoke policy 5 years ago because they handled it wrong
. Where are their priorities

The Town of Sharon is seeking land use planning and economic development consulting services. In July 2019, the Town completed work on its first Master Plan of Conservation & Development. Imagine Sharon – Preserve Our Past, Forge Our Future – was a collaborative effort of many boards and committees, with valuable input from citizens. The effort was managed by the Planning Board and a master plan steering committee; visioning and drafting was led by Civic Moxie.
