Maynard's economic panel names 2026 priorities with downtown infrastructure and beautification focus. The Economic Development Committee unanimously approved its prior meeting minutes and identified four initiatives: trash receptacles, centralized dumpsters at Naylor Court, meter removal, and food truck management regulations. Planning Director Bill Nemser reported the town receives about four complaints weekly regarding property maintenance, with owners typically remedying issues after notification.
The committee discussed a "Beautify Maynard" campaign, with Secretary Sarah Cressy proposing annual "golden broom" awards for outstanding exterior maintenance, to attract new businesses through downtown improvements.
