MIDDLEBORO The Spring Annual Town Meeting held on April 26 has come and gone. Hopefully, it will be the last one held during the pandemic.
Roughly 90 people were in attendance, meeting the reduced quorum requirements. Most of the articles dealt with the town budget, special projects, and necessary expenditures, though the Select Board and attending residents approached each decision gingerly given the last year of economic turmoil the pandemic has brought.
There were a few human interest articles that deviated from the fiscal focus.
One of the last articles was pushed to the front of the line by special request.
Article 30 proposed renaming the intersections of Center St., North Main St., Wareham St., and South Main St. locally known as the Four Corners in honor of Norman E. Record, former Police Officer and Veteran.
