"Workers hope to have improvements on the town common veterans memorial complete before Memorial Day.
The project aims to replace and re-grade the areas around the monument stones themselves.
Dale Kurtz, the town veterans agent, said the intent is to beautify the area."The memorial is a great place," he said. "Lots of people stop by, and it's well-kept by the garden club."

"As Paul Sullivan serves up a golden, gooey helping of his gourmet mac and cheese, he cannot stress enough the freshness of his recipe. When tasters wrap the four-cheese blend of white and sharp cheddar, Swiss and Monterrey jack around their forks, they tell him they couldn't agree more.
Sullivan's new restaurant, Mac City, was one of 20 local eateries represented at this year's Taste of Holliston, a food-tasting event for local restaurants to show off their finest menu items and meet residents who will hopefully go on to become loyal customers.
After opening Mac City in Franklin earlier this month, taking over the former Mac Deli space and completely revamping the menu, this is Sullivan's first Taste of Holliston. With his classic mac and cheese recipe and a chicken-broccoli mix, he gained a lot of new fans around town.
"It's important to be seen and to get your name out there," he said. "We're not your average sub and pizza place and we pride ourselves on being as fresh as possible."

"The proposed Kinder Morgan natural gas pipeline along the state’s northern border died as an idea last week, but the Spectra pipeline slated to run through the Milford area shows no signs of succumbing to the same fate.
In fact, activity around Spectra’s Algonquin Gas pipeline is starting to pick up.
Town halls in all the communities affected (Medway, Bellingham, Franklin, Millis, Milford and Upton) were slapped with legal notices late last week detailing some upcoming hearings. The public hearings, held by the Massachusetts Energy Facility Siting Board, provide an opportunity for concerned residents, property abutters and local officials to make a case for or against the pipeline. The hearings are one piece in a complex puzzle of hearings and document filings that Spectra must go through to get state and federal approval."
