As the new state representative for the 3rd Hampshire District, Solomon Goldstein-Rose plans to make himself available to residents in Amherst, Pelham and Precinct 1 in Granby on a regular basis.
Goldstein-Rose, who dropped by the Bangs Community Center in Amherst with legislative aide Catie Rutley Thursday afternoon, said office hours will be mostly on Mondays, often at 8 a.m., at locations that will rotate though the three district towns.
On Jan. 16, Goldstein-Rose will hold office hours between 8 and 9 a.m. at Share Coffee, 17 Kellogg Ave., Amherst, and Jan. 23 from 6 to 7 p.m. at the Bangs, 70 Boltwood Walk.
