Wednesday September 1st marks the start of a new day in earth resources stewardship in Falmouth. No longer will non-carbonated, unflavored drinking water in single-use plastic bottles in sizes smaller than one gallon be sold in Falmouth. Similar bans will go into effect that day in five other Cape towns.
The ban has come about as a result of a petitioner’s article for a bylaw approved by Town Meeting in September 2020. |

Town of Falmouth Beach Management Plan
The Town of Falmouth has developed an initial plan for the 2020 beach season consistent with State guidance and in consultation with the Select Board and other Cape & Island towns. The plan includes a 50% reduction in the number of parking spaces available at each beach to facilitate social distancing. Signage will be placed at all beaches identifying the social distancing and hygiene requirements set forth by the Commonwealth. Parking Attendants and Lifeguards will not enforce social distancing but will generally monitor for overcrowding and report concerns to supervisors. Further action may need to be taken if the public health is jeopardized by overcrowding or non-compliance with social distancing. This approach is generally consistent with that of other towns in the Cape and Islands region.
In order to better meet the needs of customers whose employment has been affected by the coronavirus, DUA will be hosting daily town hall meetings where we will take our constituents through a step by step process of achieving a successful unemployment claim and taking questions from claimants across the Commonwealth.

Special Enrollment Period for Uninsured MA Residents as a result of COVID-19
The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which causes the disease COVID-19, poses a clear and acute threat to the health and welfare of Massachusetts residents. Responding to this threat requires adequate access to the resources necessary to receive appropriate testing and treatment. Given that health insurance coverage increases the likelihood that residents will seek out those tests and treatments, the Massachusetts Division of Insurance has announced a Special Enrollment Period effective immediately until July 23rd for currently uninsured Massachusetts Residents.
From the office of Senator Susan Moran
Senator Moran recently received clarified guidance on outdoor events such as weddings that she thought would be of interest. Previous guidance indicated that wedding venues would be included in Phase 3 of the re-opening but we now understand that smaller outdoor weddings in appropriately spaced locations are completely fine now.

Today, 03.31.2020, the Baker-Polito Administration announced several updates related to the COVID-19 outbreak including extending the non-essential business emergency order and guidance for Executive Branch employees until May 4. The Department of Public Health’s Stay-At-Home Advisory remains in effect.

Falmouth Business Gigabit UPDATE
On February 3rd, OpenCape connected the very first customer in the initiative, the Falmouth Chamber of Commerce.
After a couple days of testing we'll begin connecting the other forty-plus businesses who have signed up for the most reliable, affordable and high-speed Internet available.
"Having the Chamber be the first customer allows us to both test and model the network connection, and we encourage businesses in our Main Street area to learn more about this great opportunity, " says President, Michael Kasparian. "By being the first community on the Cape to have a fiber-connected Main Street, Falmouth is leading the way to expand our economy, be prepared for another busy summer, and continue to ensure that our town is an attractive destination year-round.“
Free connections are still available for businesses located along the Falmouth Main Street corridor.
