DEEP DIVE – Upcoming City Council Meeting of November 17, 2025
Gardner Magazine has prepared a “Deep Dive” with hosts the Chair Man and the Chair Lady who discuss the upcoming Gardner City Council meeting of November 17, 2025. Agenda and packet, CLICK HERE.
The meeting is jam-packed with information including the Tax Rate Recapitulation, (Tax Rate $13.77), the Gardner Housing Priority Zone as part of a proposal to promote housing growth, and the details of improvements at the Gardner Landfill. Some MART ridership details are also addressed. The demolition process for the Greenwood indoor pool is also reviewed. Listen on any device, CLICK PLAY.
Once again, Gardner Mayor Nicholson is proposing 10% of free cash be earmarked towards Gardner roads. The DEEP DIVE is very helpful if you find the subjects complicated (like we do) and Gardner Magazine hopes it is helpful to you.
