GOAL Local Alert Action

Yet another town is trying to change the rules!

Westford: There is an article (9) on the warrant for the upcoming town meeting that would reclassify the Westford Sportsmen’s Club as a “Firearm Business”. This move would bring the club into all sorts of zoning restrictions including  “… potential disruption of peace and quiet enjoyment of the community …”

Much like the Speaker of the House, Ron Mariano , tried to accomplish with HD.4420, The Westford Select Board and Planning Board are trying to “Ram Through” a new Zoning Bylaw that will ultimately reduce your Second Amendment rights. This Zoning Bylaw has nothing to do with public safety. It is simply another tantrum that is trying to end run the Bruen decision!  

The proposed bylaw change would re-regulate non-profit sportsmen’s clubs as firearm retailers and make it virtually impossible for any new firearms business to locate in Westford.

We urge town residents to ATTEND TOWN MEETING ON MONDAY OCTOBER 16th and vote NO.

If you are not a town resident, make sure you get the word out to anyone that is!

Information sessions are open to you at the Westford Sportsmen’s Club on: 10/16/23 @ 7 PM
