Mayor Joyce recently introduced the establishment of a Herring and Fisheries Commission under Town Council Order 25-058, which was unanimously adopted by the Council on September 16, 2025.
With the recent success of the Monatiquot River Restoration Project which reopened fish passage to Great Pond and Sunset Lake for the first time in 200 years – this new commission will ensure that progress continues for generations to come.
Interested in joining? We’re actively seeking additional members to join the commission, with a particular emphasis on engaging the youth. Contact the Mayor’s Office at 781-794-8100 or mayorsoffice@braintreema.gov for more information.
