A decision from the Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office declares that a Cohasset by law that impacts Scituate’s waterways is invalid.
Scituate Select Board Chair Maura Curran tells Christine James this is important because the Select Board and other town officials felt that the Cohasset town by law was attempting to control what people can put in or on top of tidal waters like boats, lobster cars or floats.
A proposal to put in a pilot programming with oyster farmers is what apparently started the disagreement about the use of the waterways.
