1. Select board members from Andover, Tewksbury, and Dracut gathered where the three communities meet along the Merrimack River Saturday for a "perambulation" of the towns' boundaries.

2. Water main replacement begins Wednesday on Argilla Road, Andover Street, Reservation Road, Haverhill Street, and Lowell Street. Expect detours and delays (more info).

3. Programming note: Following next week's local election, I'm going to take a little break. The newsletter will not be published on Thursday, March 28 or Friday, March 29.
