Commission on Disability · Meeting of March 9, 2026
TYNGSBOROUGH — The Tyngsborough Commission on Disability approved prior meeting minutes and discussed accessibility and transportation challenges during a March 9 meeting. Chair Rae Ann Jacek and members Karen Wolf, Margaret MacDowell, and Peter Moore, along with Assistant Town Manager Sean Walsh, voted unanimously to approve February minutes. The commission reviewed a $12,800 AARP Community Flagship grant application targeting automatic door improvements at three town facilities, with a decision timeline pending.
Members raised voting accessibility concerns following the recent state election, citing limited curb cuts and snow-covered handicap parking and signage, and Chair Jacek demanded clarity on ride availability to Town Meeting through the Council on Aging and LRTA's Roadrunner program.
