FALMOUTH, MA A group of Cape Cod environmentalists have called on the Massachusetts Army National Guard to release hundreds of public comments pertaining to a proposal to build a machine gun range at Joint Base Cape Cod. The Association to Preserve Cape Cod submitted a public records request to obtain about 900 comments submitted to the Army National Guard regarding the range.
The $11 million firing range would expand an existing range at the base. Constructing it requires clearing more than 170 acres of forest to accommodate the range footprint, lighting, facilities, road maintenance and more.
As I await my turn to get the COVID-19 vaccine, I look ahead positively to welcome the new year, 2021. Looking back at all the 2020 challenges we faced, I would like to take a moment to recognize the success of Bourneâs leadership teams (select board, school committee, town administrator and school superintendent). Their actions enabled town employees to continue to successfully deliver all the various town services that support the needs of all the townâs residents. A job well done. As all of us step into 2021, I urge the town leaders to continue their efforts to move Bourne forward and to add value to my town.
