Dear Billy T and Somerville/Medford News Weekly Speakup Line,

Mr. Tauro,

Thank you so much for listening to me the other evening at the fundraiser at the Dante club. It was an honor to see youagain. Matt McLaughlin’s uncle died so I wasn’t able to reach him and he has been out of touch. That being said, I really do need you to petition. Whoever you can to have speed humps finally poured on my street. The situation is worsening daily.

We have many young school children using the street to get to, and from the East Somerville community school, as well as Somerville High. I have been asking and petitioning relentlessly however, I have been ignored, especially by Brad Rawson . I don’t fully understand how that man has been able to retain his job here in Somerville. I was considering adding photographs, but there’s really no need because you would have to see how fast and often cars use this street to cut through around the lights on McGrath.

Please let me know if there’s anything else I should add I will give my sworn testimony and I certainly will have it out with Mr. Rawson as he has neglected all texts, emails, phone calls, etc.
