Thanks for your vote to restore the Shawsheen River!
At Town Meeting on May 1, 2012, residents of Andover voted overwhelmingly to authorize removal of Balmoral Dam.
Thanks to all who worked to get the word out--particularly members of the Shawsheen River Watershed Association, Trout Unlimited, Andover Conservation Commission, Planning Board, Board of Selectmen, and the dedicated Town staff who worked to prepare the warrant articles in advance of the meeting.
With passage of these important articles, the project team is working to complete engineering and permitting for removal of Balmoral and Marland Place Dams. Stay tuned for more information on the restoration, and thanks again for your help and support of this important project!
