Norton



NORTON - Fire Chief Richard Gomes says the town should build a $200,000 unmanned fire station at the Winnecunnet station site on Bay Road because the old station is too small and is falling down.

The new facility would provide storage for almost all six or seven Norton fire trucks stored outside because there isn't enough space, Gomes told selectmen. Firefighters also could respond to calls from there.

Those vehicles are deteriorating and are at risk of being stolen by being outside, Gomes said.
Donation sought for tasting event

NORTON - Epoch Assisted Living of Norton, 190 Mansfield Ave., is seeking donations for The Taste of Tri-town, to be held at Epoch from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 6.
