Gardner MA Gets Invite to Housing Crisis Roundtable
Representing the Chair City at a private roundtable meeting with U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren in Boston was Gardner Mayor Michael Nicholson on Friday, October 14, 2022. It was convened to discuss the housing crisis faced by the Commonwealth. Others were from the Mass Housing Initiative and the Mass Council on Aging. “All I’m doing is providing a prospective on what we’ve done in Gardner to help increase our housing stock and meet the needs of people in the area,” said Nicholson, who also stated, “I just think it’s neat that Gardner was the only community that was asked to send a representative to a discussion about statewide policy.”
In an interview with Gardner Magazine, Mayor Nicholson said he was “proud of the reputation we’ve built for the Chair City. I’m really excited to see how Gardner has stepped up to meet the challenges of a changing society in our modern world…..We’ll continue to do what we can to make sure that Gardner is a place that people know, people recognize, and people have heard of our reputation as a place that really is setting the standard for other communities to follow.
