• 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on both sides of Washington Street, between High Street and Bryant Street

• Lower Gonzalez (506 High Street) 45 spaces

Select Board members voted unanimously on November 18 to waive the parking fees for the benefit of local businesses. The Town has traditionally provided free holiday parking during the month of December.
