The Board of Assessors will be working at the town hall on Wednesday August 5th from 8:30-3:30 to continue work on the 2021 valuations and the tax recap.

Because of serious over-crowding issues and repeated instances of prohibited activities, the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) and the Massachusetts State Police have decided to restrict access to Bash Bish Falls State Park and its parking lot on summer weekends from 9:00 am until 7:00 pm until further notice. Law enforcement officers will restrict traffic at the intersection of BB Falls Road and West Street to local traffic only – no visitors to the Falls will be allowed to pass. The same restrictions will apply at the New York State line. No Parking rules along BB Falls Rd will be strictly enforced as well, and violators will be ticketed and towed.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Brian Tobin, Emergency Management Director and Acting Chief of Police
Town of Mount Washington
