2. Town Officials to Meet Again Tuesday Morning at Town Hall

When Foxborough town officials met with department heads at Town Hall Monday morning they were confident they would not have to meet again. But Hurricane Sandy packed enough of a punch to cause severe damage to the town’s Union Loop, which is expected to lead to multi-day power outages in town. It will be the third such scenario caused by a storm for Foxborough in two years. Officials are expected to meet with National Grid president Marcy Reed Tuesday as well. Foxborough Patch will provide updates and information from that meeting as soon as possible. To read more on Foxborough’s power outage situation, click here.
