On a Public Comment about Fence Viewers
George Danziger asked in a written public comment why Northampton does not have fence viewers
required by MGL 49. The City Council on December 5th, 2019, unanimously approved Order 19.170
which exempts the City from the requirement. The link to the minutes is here:
