Planning Board Workshop/Meeting

Understanding that the people have a vested interest in the operation of their government, the Hopkinton Planning Board intends to include the public on June 14, 2023. However, due to the COVID-19 virus, the Board wants to be sure that everyone can do so safely from their homes. Therefore, this hybrid meeting will be held in-person and remotely using Zoom.

To get the most out of the remote meeting technology, participants are encouraged to join by computer when possible. Joining by computer allows you to see the Planning Board members and applicants on- screen and makes it easier to use the functions for indicating that you wish to speak and muting/unmuting yourself.

To attend this meeting remotely, please connect by 7:00 p.m. Participants will not be able to connect before the host begins the session, and anyone trying to connect who is unable to do so should try again after 7:00 p.m.
