Where will Boston’s next snow farm be?

Boston can’t forget about last winter, and now the Boston Redevelopment Authority will meet on Thursday to discuss the location of the city’s next snow farm, according to Boston Business Journal.

Last year’s snow farm in Boston’s Seaport district made headlines across Massachusetts and beyond, and didn’t officially disappear until July 14.

The BRA wants to be prepared the potential of another record-breaking winter, and is looking to put all that snow at a former Hess Oil site in East Boston, the Journal reports. That site spans seven acres of empty land.

The authority will also address snow plowing and removal services contracts, according to the Journal, which would cost up to $100,000 and would start November 14.
