The Board of Selectmen with the Emergency Management Director is compiling a list of Charlton residents, young and old, who depend upon electrically operated apparatus. The goal is to be able to contact residents quickly in the event of an emergency. A warning call and then a visit to the home would be in order should a storm cause long periods of power outages. A potential solution would be to transport people to shelters where generators would sustain any necessary machines. Knowing who to call and acting quickly could save a life. Please send the following information to the Board of Selectmen, 37 Main Street, Charlton, MA 01507: name: street address phone: type of apparatus All information will be added to our current Emergency Management Plan and listed under the Special Needs Facilities. For more details or comments to get power to the people who need it, please call (508) 248-2206.
