Steward Health announced this morning that it will close the Nashoba Valley Medical Center in Ayer, a hospital that has served 16 central Massachusetts communities, including Harvard, since 1964.
In a July 19 letter to senate conferees, state Sen. Jamie Eldridge has asked that representatives of both the Devens Committee and the Devens Enterprise Commission (DEC) be included in the working group tasked by Gov. Maura Healey’s economic development bill with planning for increased housing in Devens.

Harvard has a new town administrator. Dan Nason has accepted Harvard’s offer and will begin work Monday, Aug. 5.
State senators finished work on Gov. Maura Healey’s economic development bill late Thursday, July 11, and sent it to the House of Representatives, with a small but significant change to a section that deals with housing at Devens.
About half the town’s remaining American Rescue Plan Act funds will be used to pay for police details for the Devens water connection project and a peer review of the Conservation Commission’s plans for the Ayer Road reconstruction project.
