Westford Select Board hopefuls eye budget, open space issues


Open space in focus
One question asked was if the candidates support open space acquisition. Also asked was their thoughts on the Select Board's decision against pursuing the purchase of the Westford Riding Academy.
Cunningham said he supports open-space acquisition, but said the academy property offers no direct connection to other conservation parcels. "The cost would probably have been pretty high. It's a matter of figuring out which ones are best for the town, and which ones we can really afford."
Barber-Mingo said he supports open-space purchases within budgetary means. As a 21-year town resident, Barber-Mingo said he enjoys the presence of wildlife. In balancing a growing town with conservation, Barber-Mingo said, "The only way to do that is to protect open space."
