Councilor’s Message
Hi Neighbors,
I hope this email finds you well.
This newsletter is a special Eastern Nazarene College (ENC) edition. It brings together key information about the City of Quincy’s potential purchase of the ENC campus. My goal is to give you a single, clear communication that provides a solid foundation of the relevant facts about this proposed transaction. Please review the information below, and if you have any thoughts, I would love to hear them.
I am approaching this decision with an open mind, carefully weighing both the pros and cons. As a taxpayer myself, I am sensitive to the potential impact on our tax bills. At the same time, I am mindful of the real opportunities this purchase could create for our city—an improved library for the Wollaston area, expanded education and child services, stormwater mitigation for a neighborhood that regularly experiences flooding, 55+ housing, options for first-time homebuyers, and other benefits for Quincy residents.
Thank you for signing up for this newsletter. Please feel free to share it with friends and neighbors who may find this information helpful.
Sincerely,
Walter Hubley
City Councilor, Ward 3
