Downtown Middleboro Foot Traffic

More than a year ago, the need for a downtown Bulletin Board was discussed and seems to have been forgotten.

There had previously been a large bulletin board on the Town Hall lawn that was removed when the Town Hall was renovated.

.

Currently, public meetings are posted in an alcove of the Bank Building that is locked when the bank and offices are closed. So unless you bring your binoculars, you can't read the postings after hours.

.

If the bulletin board contained locked sections that could be accessed only by those having keys, couldn't the Town Clerk post public meetings and hearings on one section of the board and others post notices of other events on other sections?

.

If a visitor arrives in town, would it make sense to post businesses and services? activities such as Soule Homestead concerts? a calendar of library reading programs? Park Department programs? events such as "Miss Firecracker Concert" ? church services?

.

Increasing attendance and promotion of local businesses and events seems to be a positive benefit to us all and assure their continuance. And foot traffic seems to be positive.

.

Would it make sense to erect a Bulletin Board in the Kramer Pocket Park?
