BOMBSHELL:
Two Selectmen Recuse Themselves from Controversial 203 Pond Street Discussion


    

by Robert Falcione

January 20, 2015 —  The Town of Hopkinton was notified of the sale of Chapter 61 property, known as the "Coolidge Property", and "203 Pond Street", by owners John Coolidge and Ann Richards on November 14, 2014. Chapter 61 land, as farmland or forestry, enjoys tax breaks until the owner changes its use, or receives a bona fide offer to purchase. That notification on November 14, 2014 activated a 120-day window during which the town has to exercise its right of first refusal by purchasing the property, or let the standing offer of $2 million to a developer remain. If the developer purchases the property, the taxes that were abated for the previous five years become due.

        At the last selectmen's meeting, the board offered a robust schedule to give the townspeople the chance to make up their own minds by offering to hold a Special Town Meeting, the first step necessary to purchase  the property. According to this evening's agenda, it appears that they planned to vote to open a warrant for the Special Town Meeting, and begin advertising it tomorrow for 15 days, after which time they would have closed the warrant. However, Chairman Todd Cestari announced that he and Selectman John Coutinho would recuse themselves this evening, while they continued discussions of their eligibility to participate in this particular subject. Inasmuch as there were two selectmen absent this evening, the remaining Selectman, John Mosher, was not sufficient for a quorum.

        The schedule was for a Special Town Meeting to be held on March 3, 2015, with a corresponding Special Election on March 10, 2015. Today's announcement and failure to hold the discussion as planned throws the schedule off.

         Public Officials are required to avoid so much as a perception of a conflict of interest, but neither selectman, Chairman Todd Cestari nor John Coutinho, articulated the reason why when given the chance.

            We await the answer to a query to the Town Manager as to the reasons why, but geography may play a part.

          Mr. Cestari lives on Elizabeth Road across from Mr. Coutinho, whose property borders Elizabeth Road, but faces David Joseph Road. The estate of Mr. Coutinho's mother, who passed away last April, is also on Elizabeth Road, with just one home  between it and Mr. Cestari's.

          All of their homes appear to be, quite literally, a stone's throw away from land owned by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, which has made it clear to the Town of Hopkinton that it has an interest is purchasing the 203 Pond Street property. It may be that the two selectmen are unwilling abutters to the entity that has said it could possibly pitch in $250,000* toward the $2 million Coolidge price tag.

         In addition, in a perspective conveyed this Wednesday morning, the estate of Ora Cheney directly abuts the property of the estate of Mrs. Coutinho, and is only separated from Mr. Cestari's property by one lot. The Cheney property has been offered to the town if the town purchases the 203 Pond Street property. That, said Town manager Norman Khumalo, is the reason the selectmen recused themselves, while they await a definitive determination.

           (It is interesting to note, with nothing implied, that a former selectman, Brian Herr, also hails from Elizabeth Road.)

* This figure is as of January 15, 2015 in a letter the DCR sent to Town manager Norman Khumalo.

January 20, 2015 — Shortly before 6:00 pm today, a smoke alarm sounded at the home of an elderly Walcott Street resident near the intersection with Main Street. Hopkinton firefighters determined the likelihood that a low water situation in the boiler was the cause of the smoke. The technician for the Framingham based oil company finally agreed to service the unit and was on his way from Rhode Island at 6:25 pm.

Troopers Charge 6 with Animal Cruelty after Cockfighting Evidence Found

WORCESTER, MA January 20, 2015 — Massachusetts State Police arrested six men Sunday morning after stopping a car in Worcester and finding evidence, including dead chickens and live ones that later had to be euthanized, that the occupants were involved with cockfighting.

At approximately 5 a.m. Sunday, Trooper Jeremiah Dwyer stopped a Honda Odyssey van with Massachusetts plates for motor vehicle violations on the eastbound side of Route 290. After approaching the van, Trooper Dwyer observed a large pile of loose cash under the driver’s seat. During questioning the driver, later identified as RICHARD DIAZ, 30, of Lawrence, stated he and his five passengers were coming from Queens, N.Y., and going to Lawrence. The front seat passenger, later identified as YAMIL A. MALDONADO, 28, of Lawrence, stated that he owned the van and gave troopers consent to search it.

Trooper George Demos of the State Police K9 Section, along with his partner Cayman, responded to assist in the search, as did Trooper Luis Aguirre, who interviewed the van’s occupants in Spanish.

Troopers located a large black trash bag in a hidden compartment under the van’s floor. The bag contained what appeared to be several dead, skinned chickens. Four boxes in the rear of the Honda were also located; each contained a live chicken that had been subjected to procedures related to cockfighting, including having their lower bodies shaved and crests on their heads cut off. Also located in the vehicle was additional cash in the glove box, which, combined with the cash under the driver’s seat, totaled $4,500.

Also found was paraphernalia related to cockfighting, including razor blades, nail clippers, imitation spurs, wax and liquid tape used to secure the spurs to the chickens, lighters believed to be used to heat the wax, and a spray bottle with a clear liquid believed to be used to make chickens “slick” prior to fighting.

Troopers arrested all six men and charged them with: 1.) Cruelty to Animals; 2.) Possession of Fighting Animals; and 3.) Conspiracy to Commit a Crime. Those arrested were:
1. RICHARD DIAZ, 30, 305 Water St. #2, Lawrence;
2. YAMIL A. MALDONADO, 28, 105 Jackson St. #48, Lawrence;
3. JOSE M. FIGUEROA, 27, 1075 Washington St., Dorchester;
4. JOSE M. VASQUEZ, 34, 119 Bennington St., Lawrence;
5. HELPIS S. RODRIGUEZ, 40, 20 Bennington St., Lawrence; and
6. DAMIAN CASTILLO, 34, 71 Bine St., Nashua, N.H.

The men were transported to the State Police Barracks in Holden where they were booked. They were bailed and ordered to appear at Worcester District Court for arraignment today. DIAZ, the driver, will also be cited for speeding and committing a marked lanes violation.

The chickens were turned over to Worcester Animal Control. State Police have been notified that the chickens had to be euthanized.

The accompanying photo shows some of the boxes in which the chickens and other material was being transported.

     We would like to say a very heartfelt “thank you” to everyone who donated to the KeepSmilin4Abbie 2014 Toy Drive. This year’s toy drive exceeded our expectations, with over 3,000 toys delivered to Boston Children’s Hospital the week before Christmas!

A special thanks to the schools and businesses that hosted our drop off locations. Our toy drive in Abbie’s honor would not have been successful without you. Children’s Hospital told us that the toys would go to the many sick children that wouldn’t be home for the holidays and also for birthdays. Your generosity provided families of sick children some happiness this Christmas.  Abbie would have loved to see everyone coming together to donate toys for her favorite holiday.

We'd also like to thank those of you who have shared emails, messages and stories of Abbies love. Abbie was a very special person and friend. We continue to be amazed at how many people she touched in her 15 years. She lived with no regrets and many smiles. 

Thank you again for your generosity…you have been able to make many sick children smile this Christmas season.

With love, Abbie’s friends (pictured below):

New England Patriots Player Vince Wilfork Lends A Helping Hand At Rollover Crash

January 19, 2015 — At 12:45 a.m., troopers assigned to the State Police Barracks in Foxboro responded to reports of a vehicle rolled over on Route 1 in the town of Foxboro. Troopers arrived to find a 2015 Jeep Wrangler rolled onto its side. To their surprise, New England Patriots Defensive Tackle Vince Wilfork was beside the vehicle checking on the operator. The operator of the vehicle, 38-year-old MARY ELLEN BROOKS of Hanson, was unable to get out of the vehicle. Trooper Kenneth Proulx stated that he held the drivers door of the vehicle open, and Vince Wilfork reached in and helped lift the operator out of the vehicle with one hand.

Mr. Wilfork departed after ensuring the troopers didn’t need any further assistance. Foxboro Fire Department and EMS responded to the scene to check on BROOKS. She was subsequently placed under arrest by Trooper Michael Lokitis, and was charged with operating under the influence of alcohol and negligent operation of a motor vehicle.  Contributed content.

Deer vs. Car

January 19, 2015 — Judging from the dent on the driver's side of the Toyota sedan on the left of the photo, a deer ran at great speed into the vehicle before running off into the nearby woods. Officer Thomas Griffin, far left, braked for the deer that ran in front of his cruiser upon arrival at the scene, and tracked it a ways into the woods, but did not catch any further sight of it. The fate of  deer and other large wild animals injured in car accidents is often euthanasia.

Much of the construction work was organized and performed by Chris Nation of 20th Century Homes, who donated his time, equipment and labor. Hopkinton architect Scott Richardson designed the current one as a Form Follows Function structure; the height of the new structure is more suited to the level of the audience, and  a handicap ramp is integrated  into the circumference of the structure.
