Chief Gary Daugherty Chosen for Framingham Fire
Chief Daugherty was chosen over Town Treasurer Maureen Dwinnell as the Interim Town Manager for Hopkinton following the resignation of Anthony Troiano in a vote by Hopkinton Selectmen on October 15, during which selectman Michael Shepard was the sole advocate for Mrs. Dwinnell. At the time, Mr. Daugherty had not mentioned that his hat was in the ring for the Framingham Fire chief's position. Selectman Vice-Chair Mary Pratt defended the lapse, saying Chief Daugherty did not know he was still being considered in Framingham. After learning of the Chief's options, Selectmen Chair Brian Herr said at the time, "There are opportunities out there for all of us. In this day and age, there are a lot of people out there kicking the tires. "It's like the head coach of UMass going to Duke. "It's not a big deal.'" he said. The selectmen will need to address the issue of Mr. Daugherty's leaving at their next meeting. |

Mr. Kadlik ordered banners, sandwich boards and other temporary signs removed in November, an action that at least one business blames on her business "failing." The way Hopkinton zoning is interpreted, whatever is not spoken to, is not allowed. And banners, sandwich boards and other such signs are not addressed in the bylaws, and therefore not allowed. At the same time, the Zoning Advisory Committee is studying new bylaws to allow those very signs that are presently not allowed. Chairman of ZAC, Ken Weismantel, attended the meeting and made it clear that the committee wanted to complete this group of bylaws at the next meeting on Wednesday evening. Attorney Doug Resnick, who represents Weston Nurseries, said that the nursery is exempt because it is agricultural, and said he feels he will be standing on firm ground when his appeal is heard on December 17. Former Board of Appeals member and Chair, Wayne Davies, who coincidentally earned a proclamation by the Selectmen later this evening, recommended keeping the fight less public, and instead, meeting with the ZEO privately to see what can be done. Some business owners wondered what could be done in the meantime, before the Town Meeting in May, when the proposed language will be voted on, providing the Planning Board approves it. Mr. Weismantel suggested a Special Town Meeting to move the article forward. Mr. Davies and Mr. Resnick agreed that people should speak to Mr. Kadlik privately, but Mr. Davies suggested that people could apply for a variance. Chairman of the Downtown Revitalization Committee, Peter Lagoy (File photo, above), suggested that there could be workarounds. "Perhaps waive the signs. "Other options, civil disobedience. But there may be some serious consequences. "A Special Town Meeting. If it saves one business in town, it is worth it," he said. The loosely knit group plans to attend the Zoning Advisory Committee on Wednesday evening to offer input to the Zoning bylaw proposals. |

Tenth Anniversary for "Wee Deliver"
Above, AJ Waltzman, left, and Emma Murphy cut the anniversary cake that all of the Wee Deliver postal workers shared today in the Elmwood School Library.
December 2, 2008 Elmwood School celebrated the Tenth Anniversary of Wee Deliver today with a joint swearing-in ceremony of their new Postmasters. Hopkinton Assistant postmaster, Doreen Harrington, gave the oath of office to AJ Waltzman and Emma Murphy in a ceremony today attended by 30 Wee Deliver postal workers as well as their teachers and some parents. Ms. Harrington said to the students, "The motto in Hopkinton is 'Every piece of mail gets delivered every day.'" "Your jobs are very important," she said. Principal Ilene Silver admonished the gathering of 37 or so student Wee Deliver postal workers to remember that each piece of mail needs a return address or it goes to the Dead Letter Office. Wee Deliver has a "real" mailbox at the school, as well as boxes at Colella's and the Post Office. The program is part of the school's writing assignments. Students and parents can write to each other, as well as Grandma from out of town, who can mail a letter to the school for inclusion into the Wee Deliver system. |

Legacy Farms Master Plan Hearings Begin "...we believe in Legacy farms." ~ Steven Zieff, Project Manager "We are committed to this project" ~ Roy MacDowell, Jr.
December 1, 2008 Steven Zieff, above, project manager for Legacy Farms, Boulder Capital's bold proposal for 940 residential units and 450,000 sq. ft. of commercial space, presented an update of the project's status, and proposals for moving forward on the Planning Board's consideration of a Master Plan Special Permit for the development. The MPSP includes infrastructure elements, such as a spine road and waste water treatment and disposal, as well as a potable water well owned by the town, but being developed by Boulder, from which the town will use the difference. The well has a "stabilized" rate of 421,900 gpd, achieved after undergoing a 15-day pump test. In addition to the quantity, Mr. Zieff said that the quality also turned out to be good. Mr. Zieff detailed the low impact type of storm water retention systems, such as swales and rain gardens, that much of the development will be using. Following approval of a MPSP, individual pods would go before site plan review for approval. Although the Public Hearing was called to address the Master Permit process, the Chairman, Mark Abate, asked Mr. Zieff to address the project's standing in these troubled economic times. "It's important for people in Hopkinton to understand how the credit crunch could affect this project," he said, addressing Mr. Zieff. Someone had left a pile of reprints on a back table, next to the evening's agenda, from an unflattering article in the Boston Business Journal that said Wachovia bank had "hauled" Boulder principal, Roy S. MacDowell Jr., into court over unpaid debt that had been due. Mr. Zieff said he asked a couple of lenders where they were in 1990, a troubling year for the economy. He said that they answered that they were children, implying they couldn't see the big picture. Mr. MacDowell addressed the article directly, saying that he had gotten a call from the Boston office of Wachovia from someone who said the entire staff was leaving. Eventually, representatives from out of state told him that Wachovia was calling in the debt. "We are working to buy Wachovia's debt," he said. "It is a stressful time in the credit and real estate market. "We are 100% committed to this project," he said. During a short interview following the meeting, Mr. MacDowell repeated his commitment to the Legacy Farms project, saying that his company has shut down projects in other states, but he believes Massachusetts is still very strong. He said he is confident the economy could rebound in a year, three at the most. The Public Hearing will continued on January 12, 2009. For those looking for reading material, the entire documentation for the MPSP is available at the library or on the Legacy Farm website under the "documents" section. |

Legacy Farms Master Plan Public Hearing Begins Tonight Hearing to be held in Senior Center
Above, excerpt from Master Plan. Click here to see full drawing. West is at the top.
December 1, 2008 The planning Board will begin a Public Hearing this evening at the Hopkinton Senior Center to consider the Master Plan Special Permit for Legacy Farms. The development will consist of 940 residential units and 450,000 square feet of retail/commercial space.
In a memo to the Planning board, Town Planner Elaine Lazarus writes in part:
Sec. 210-172.A of the OSMUD describes the scope of the Master Plan Special Permit: Except as otherwise provided in this section, no Construction Activity for any Development Project to be located on land within the OSMUD District may commence unless authorized by a Master Plan Special Permit.... The MPSP is the general approval that lays out the plan for the entire development site and conditions under which permitting for the Development Projects may proceed, in addition to the provisions of the OSMUD relating to land use, dimensional requirements, etc. The development projects will be shown on detailed site plans to be submitted to the Board after the MPSP is issued.

Twentieth Anniversary for Ann-Michele's Open House during Holiday Stroll by Elizabeth Eidlitz
December 1, 2008 Hairdressing has been employed by nearly every
society for centuries: ancient Assyrians wore complicated curly hair
styles; Greek women in 400 BC dyed their hair; women of the Roman period
bleached their hair and styled it with crude curling irons; Japanese
women lacquered their elaborate coiffures with a precursor of modern-day
hair sprays.
"There was a class called Career Ed, and I picked Cosmetology," she
said.
"Coming from Hopkinton, was a real eye-opener. The school was diverse. There were men with women's bodies transvestites. You don't see any of those clients in Hopkinton," she said.
"On the first day of school, my mother drove me. She didn't want me to get out of the car. But I survived."

November 30, 2008 Early this evening a caller reported that her 16 year-old daughter had jumped out of her vehicle after exiting the Mass Pike and proceeding onto 495 South. The adjacent neighborhood is the Fruit Street area of Roosevelt Farms and Huckleberry Lane. The State Police offered help with their Air Wing and K-9 units. Up to six State Police Cruisers, as well as three officers from Hopkinton and at least one from Westborough participated in the search for the girl in that neighborhood, and then a more broad area. Chief of Police Thomas Irvin sent a recorded reverse 911 telephone message to the neighborhood residents asking them to turn on their outside lights, check their garages and sheds, and to call if they see anyone who might be that girl. This evening, Hopkinton Sgt. John Porter said that the girl had made it back to her school in Arlington, but did not know how she got there. She did not have a cell phone, he said. Sgt. Porter said the State police are investigating. |
