The Plymouth Select Board meeting on October 29, 2024, highlighted several community-focused initiatives, including preparations for Halloween festivities and updates on early voting and road improvements.

One of the most exciting announcements was the continuation of the town's participation in the annual trick-or-treating event on Court Street. This year marks the third time Town Hall will open its doors to families and children, providing a safe space for trick-or-treating. However, residents are advised that Court Street will be closed starting at 2 PM to ensure safety during the event. This closure coincides with early voting, which has seen significant participation, with nearly 6,000 residents casting their ballots early. The early voting period will continue until November 1, and mail-in voting is also progressing well, with 12,000 ballots already received.

In addition to Halloween festivities and voting updates, the Select Board congratulated the local school department for raising $75,000 for pediatric cancer through their Go for Gold fundraiser. This achievement reflects the community's commitment to supporting important causes.

The meeting also addressed ongoing infrastructure improvements. Starting next Monday, roadwork will commence on Allerton Street, Seba Street, and Seba Place, which includes milling and paving. This project follows extensive sidewalk and curbing replacements completed over the summer, marking a significant step toward enhancing local road safety and accessibility.

As the community gears up for Halloween and the upcoming election, these discussions underscore the town's dedication to fostering a vibrant and engaged community while addressing essential public services and infrastructure needs.
