Granby Drummer (https://granbydrummer.com/2025/11/1/)
An 11-member committee appointed by the planning and zoning commission is working on updating the town’s Plan of Conservation and Development, more commonly referred to as the “POCD.” The POCD is a guiding document used by town government and the public, that outlines policies, goals and standards for the physical and economic development of the town.
Granby is a town that practices “direct democracy.” What does that mean? It means you, the voters, through the ballot box, choose your elected officials every other November, you approve the town’s annual budget in April and, periodically, you are asked to go to the polls to approve spending and funding for large infrastructure (capital) improvements.
Saturday, Oct. 18 a crowd of protesters drawn from Granby and surrounding towns converged on the Granby town green with signs and flags.
More than 300 people braved nor’easter winds and pouring rain on October 13 to pay respects to the family of Jenny Emery—her husband Dave and children Nina, Ellie and Bob—at Holcomb Farm.
On Oct. 6, The Granby Board of Selectmen honored the town’s police and fire chiefs.
