Three Rivers Interlocal Council (TRIC)
The Three Rivers Interlocal Council (TRIC) is a Greater Boston subregion of twelve (12) communities: Canton, Dover, Foxborough, Medford, Milton, Needham, Norwood, Randolph, Sharon, Stoughton, Walpole, and Westwood, working collaboratively on regional issues.
The Three Rivers Interlocal Council (TRIC) is located Southwest of Boston. TRIC gets its name from the three major rivers in the subregion: the Neponset, Charles, and Canoe River. TRIC meets monthly to review and discuss issues of inter-municipal significance. Participants at TRIC meetings can include Local Council Representatives, town planners, members of Boards of Selectmen and Planning Boards, Town Administrators, Chambers of Commerce, and interested citizen-planners.
