Somerville/Medford News Weekly Speakup Line: More of “As the City of Medford Turns” and Need About Town

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

Good job by Residents, Homeowners, former Public Workers, Commission members, Firemen, Councilor Scarpelli, and a Union Rep. These are just a few who were vocal at a well attended Community gathering at the Elks in Medford.

The topic was just plain info and defining issues in the City. We all know times and situations change, but I think all who attended want a healthy steering and honesty, ideas with a touch of traditional value…all why we stay in the City. Items information on Our Charter review, School news, Housing, Data stats, and Dept News were given. But, to me, who has presented some issues and comments,suggestions to our City Council, saw after many years (day of Penta, Marks, Pompeo) a cohesive group hearing together, gaining Info, sitting next to strangers at some seats and saying Hello. Nice.

CHANGING venues, This was a feast week for St Rita for the “impossible”…regardless of faith, SaInts have to be proven by tbe Catholic Church…coincidental to me same week that maybe by earnest ideas and people…a bit of impossible could come to Medford – Common sense ideas, solutions offeredbyCommonpeople,Concerns and help MAYBE SOMEDAY given to taxpayers after what I see as a few disparaging years. My dear Fine Folks, it can only happen if you watch a Council mtg,
Chs 23, 43 twice monthly, react good or bad, and I say for ++++!! Time VOTE.

“NEWS ’bout Town.”. weather is great in Medford this week, Porch Fest Coming…check signs And Internet. And,the Medford HS and Jr High String bands were honored at the Council Meeting for Award received and Silver Ones to Jr. High. …played 2 tune program at the mtg. YEAH!

Hall Ave sadly is still treacherous…careful if our dear children are on bikes…YIKES
My babe flowers are almost allin at Collern’s island for my family..more mulch, floral to come. Enjoy!

On the Conservation end, drive by the extension work on Riverside Avenue to see the entrance of CLIPPERSHIP…walk, talk, sip, doggee exercise toward middle schools and the river!! Alas, a breath in Medford…
