Historical Commission Meeting - April 21st, 2026

The Town of Bridgewater Historical Commission held a meeting on April 21, 2026, primarily to discuss the demolition delay hearing for the property at 167 Oak Street. The commission reviewed the condition and historical significance of the house, ultimately deciding to allow the builder, Falconer, to proceed with demolition due to safety concerns and the poor state of the property. They agreed to request a walkthrough of the house before demolition if it is safe to do so. No formal procurement or contract awards were discussed, but the commission planned to relay their decision to the building inspector's office and sign off on the necessary forms. The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn and plans to approve meeting minutes at the next session.
