AMESBURY — The Amesbury Chamber of Commerce and the town will hold a forum next week to discuss the Lower Millyard redevelopment project.

"The chamber offered to organize that," Mayor Thatcher Kezer said. "To get the public as much information as possible about the Lower Millyard redevelopment."

Council President Anne Ferguson said the forum will showcase potential developments and what's planned."

The chamber said representatives from the town will be on hand to present their plans and answer questions from the audience.
