HUDSON — Park Commission voted to update policy language and deferred a dog-field restriction to next month. The commission voted 2-0 to replace "Executive Assistant" with "Town Manager" throughout Park Commission policy documents. Hudson Youth Soccer Association President Shaun Chambers presented concerns about dog waste on athletic fields, noting the organization paid approximately $1,000 to remove waste from Intel Field in spring 2026.
Chair Robert D. Bowen and member Michael Chaves supported a restriction policy but deferred the matter to October 21, pending input from absent member James Roan. Chambers specified his request applied only to athletic playing fields.
