At the 2021 Annual Town Meeting, the residents of North Andover voted to accept the projects recommended to Town Meeting by the Community Preservation Committee. Among the approved projects was a plan for landscaping and infrastructure improvements to the parking lot, causeway, and trails for accessing Weir Hill from Pleasant Street. The Town has contracted with Ray Dunetz Landscape Architecture to design improvements that protect the natural and historic resources at the project site, while continuing to support active use of the open space. As this area is popular for numerous types of recreation, we are holding a public meeting to provide more information about the planned improvements and to answer any questions.
