On this episode of “What’s New, Westford?” local resident Mark Minnucci joins Joyce and Steve in the podcasting studio for a discussion about the Board of Health’s recent town-wide indoor mask mandate and the protest on the common in response, as well as the recent logging plan for East Boston Camps endorsed by the Conservation Commission. In both cases, the Town’s postings on Facebook and the surrounding discussion raise questions about how the Town can most effectively communicate with residents to keep them informed.
