Rehoboth town offices remain closed for a third day due to Monday’s historic blizzard, which dumped 30 inches of snow on the region.

In addition, the Council on Aging is also closed.

Selectman Lenny Mills praised the town's Highway Department for their efforts in clearing the roadways after the storm.

“Due to investing in the right equipment and maintaining it for optimal readiness, Team Highway has successfully delivered uninterrupted services throughout the storm and will continue to provide additional services this morning,” Mills said Wednesday on his Facebook page.

Dighton-Rehoboth Regional Schools remain closed as well. No reopening date has been announced.

School Superintendent Bill Runey said “the safety of first responders, DPW workers, and our facilities team is our priority right now. We have begun cleanup efforts on each of our three campuses, but we have a long way to go.”

On Monday, numerous power outages were reported to National Grid. 231 customers were impacted. The outages were on Pine St, Tremont St, Homestead Ave, Hillside Ave, Cross St, Sweeney Road, Talbot Drive, Agricultural Ave., Walker St, and Finnigans Way.
