5 Things You Need To Know Today: July 9
Historical Commission, saving a part of Framingham history, meeting on General Chemical, doctors and dentists, free electronic recycling and the Democrats are having a BBQ are all part of today's column.
Our daily column, 5 Things You Need to Know Today, will help you to get your day started and offer you some fodder for water cooler conversation.
1. The Framingham Historical Commission will hold a meeting tonight at 7:30 at the Edgell Memorial Library. Over the weekend, Framingham Patch's newest blogger Joe Rizoli talked about the need to save the Peter and Sarah Cloyes house on Salem End Rd., which has historical significance to the settling of Framingham and the Salem Witch Trials of 1692. Do you agree with him that the house should be saved?
2. Framingham Board Of Health is scheduled to meet at 7 at Wilson Elemenentary School to continue a hearing on General Chemical.

4. On Wednesday, July 11 the Framingham Department of Public Works is holding a free electronic recycling event from noon to 8 p.m. at the Recycling Center on Mt. Wayte Ave. If it has a power cord or power button, they'll take it. Items that you would normally pay for will be accepted for free during this event. Residents must have a valid Framingham license. The event is free with those with a valid permit to use the Recycling Center; however for this event
the $10 permit fee will be waived in exchange for a non-perishable food
item donation. For questions, please contact the Solid Waste Division at 508-532-6001 or email recycling@framinghamma.gov
5. State Rep. Chris Walsh will host Framingham Democrats for a BBQ at his home tonight. Candidates and elected officials are expected to attend this event, which supports the Democratic Party and causes important to Democrats.

Yes, the house should be saved but done so before 2050.
The pace we're going I'll be an antique by then.

I don't usually agree with Joe on anything, but I totally support him on preserving this historic house.
