Ground Water Protection Passes

On Monday, June 7th, voters passed Article 23 at Berkley Town Meeting. Article 23 was written by Berkley resident Mark Speer and put on the warrant by petition. This general bylaw provides protection for the town's groundwater by preventing excavation below the mean waterline.

Berkley residents depend on ground water from private wells as their only source of clean drinking water.
