The Southborough Green Technology and Recycling Committee will host a public meeting at the Southborough Library tonight, January 19, 2012 at 7:30 pm. This information session will provide town residents the opportunity to hear about the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Green Communities Program. There are now 84 towns and cities participating in this program. The Green Technology and Recycling Committee believes Southborough should consider participating and encourages residents to learn more about this worthwhile effort.

The primary goals of the Green Communities Program are:

1. To encourage growth of “Green” industry within the town

2. To reduce the town’s operating costs

3. To reduce the life cycle costs of home ownership

Please plan to attend and learn how Southborough can move forward in a more environmentally friendly manner.
