Contractor’s Building
Next month, the Gardner Conservation Commission will meet on January 9, 2023 to hold a Public Hearing continued on a request relating to 170 Mill Street. Contractor Mark Harasimowicz wishes to construct a contractor’s building on the property. Because the proposed work is located within the riverfront area, it falls under the purview of the Conservation Commission.
