“Approvals-Not-Required: … • Cooper-Berry Corner Road” — Charlton Planning Board Agenda for June 6, 2007.
Hopefully, by the end of the week we’ll be the proud owners of 46½ more acres of property.
“A motion to open the budget and consider it by line item, rather than as a whole, failed to gain majority support.” — Worcester Telegram & Gazette, on the one motion at last night’s Town Meeting that failed.
I was the one at Town Meeting that offered that motion.
DCI Reporter V3 still needs a little work…
“Okay, your password has been reset to ‘password2’.” — The customer service rep. at my bank, after calling them, telling them that my account on their web site was inactive due to me mistyping my password too many times, and telling them my name.
There was no verification beyond me telling them my name.
More about the false sense of security when logging into my bank in the next update…

Residents of private roads, which have been open to public use for six or more years, may now petition selectmen to provide temporary repairs such as filling holes, oiling surfaces, resurfacing and drainage installation. Voters at the May town meeting approved the new practice of using public funds to repair private roads if 51 percent of the landowners abutting the road sign a petition for repair. Last week, selectmen approved the new petition form and decided each petition will be valid for three fiscal years. The new practice is pending approval by the state attorney general for action taken at town meeting, after which, residents may obtain petition forms from the town administrator’s office.
Despite that I voted against the measure at town meeting, I think my dad and I ought to sign one of those petitions, just to see what they might do to our road… :)
