Special Town Meeting Set for September 30

The Board of Selectmen will issue a warrant for a special town meeting to be held Monday evening September 30. The warrant will cover three articles two about land takings from the Boston Revere Beach Lynn railroad and one to appoint a committee to study a municipal power plant. One land taking would ratify recent actions to acquire 117 feet of the railroad bed between Pauline and Lincoln streets. The second would take a section near Center station to allow Jefferson Street to Woodside Avenue with parking space. The power plant article signals consideration only and the board does not endorse a municipal plant at this time.
