Ongoings in Provincetown

Have you been to the breakwater in Provincetown? This is at the rotary and just next to The Provincetown Inn. Next year at this time, you may be seeing newly built homes set on the 3.5 acre property formerly owned by the Murchison family. The gate house will be a new home, the main house will be tastefully renovated and five newly constructed homes will appear. The town has granted the owner permission to develop the land. Town officials feel the owner, Clifford Schorer, has been more than helpful throughout the process.

Residents will vote on five ballot questions in next week’s annual election on May 5th. The outcome will determine whether the town will fund The Recreation Department, if the town will purchase a $628,000 fire truck, $125,000 for a street sweeper and $50,000 on street repair/sidewalk maintenance. Town moderator Irene Rabinowitz and Selectman David Bedard are running unopposed but will appear on the ballot. The polls are located at The Veterans Elementary School gym and open 7AM until 7PM.

The Outer Cape Choral will hold “A Concert for Peace” at the UU Meeting House on May 8th and 9th at 7PM. The concert includes Franz Joseph Haydn’s “Mass in the Time of War.” The concert is free both nights.
