DPW Storm Prep for Hurricane Jose



Although it is unclear what exactly the Town of Hull will receive for weather from Hurricane Jose, we are taking steps to minimize its impact, whatever it may be.

For our part, the DPW is in the process of removing beach stairs, closing dune openings, cleaning basins and readying our equipment for whatever issues we are forced to deal with. We apologize for any inconvenience these measures may cause but we are doing so in the best interest of the town and its residents along the shoreline.

For more precise weather and Town notifications, please check the Hull Emergency Management page.



Household Hazardous Waste Day - This Saturday


Just a reminder, the Household Hazardous Waste Day is this coming Saturday from 9AM until 1PM at the DCR parking lot along the George Washington Boulevard by the roller rink.

If you live in town and are planning on attending this event, all you will need to bring with you is your drivers license showing that you are a Hull resident. Only out-of-town residents will need an authorization form.

New Sign for the Charlie Feist Field

The Hull DPW installed a new sign for the Charlie Feist Ballfield in Kenberma yesterday. The old sign was destroyed by kids, we're hoping that this new sign will be respected the way that Charlie was respected in our schools and in our community.
