MMLD is proud to support those who keep our community safe. 🚒

Thanks to funds raised through the Merrimac ⚡️ Light Department’s Street Light Program, we were able to donate $19,000 to the Merrimac Fire Department. These funds will help maintain licensing for critical EMS and fire equipment—ensuring everything stays ready when it’s needed most.

With budget constraints putting some of this equipment at risk, we’re grateful to step in and help. A big thank you to our commissioners for their swift support in making this happen.

Together, we’re helping to keep Merrimac safe. ⚡️💙🚒

On Tuesday, April 21st at our monthly Merrimac Light Commissioners meeting we had the pleasure of extending our sincere thanks to Commissioner Norman Denault for a remarkable 29+ years of service. His long-standing dedication, leadership, and commitment to the community has made a lasting impact.

Norm’s contributions over nearly three decades have helped guide the organization with stability and vision, and that kind of service is truly appreciated.

If you see him around town please wish him all the best in his retirement.
