Dear Editor: I really enjoyed Jay Turner’s recent article which regarded Devin Foster as the “greatest basketball player to ever put on a Bulldog uniform.” As a CHS alum myself, I am very happy to hear of Devin’s basketball success. More importantly, he seems like a delightful young man who will continue to represent the […]
Dear Editor: The takeaway for me from last week’s article about the protracted Dedham Street delays and the impact on the Topgolf proposal is that we’ve lost the chance to get Topgolf in Canton. That’s barring the success of what looks like a Hail Mary effort by the Select Board to get senior executives from […]
Dear Editor: With the creation of a collaborative of St. Gerard’s and St. John’s back in June 2018, followed by the renaming of the churches into a single parish as St. Oscar Romero last fall, it was no surprise that the church decided this July to close St. Gerard’s and sell the property. As Father […]
Dear Editor: At our recent town meeting, Canton adopted Municipal Energy Aggregation (MEA). Simply put, MEA is a form of group energy purchasing in which the town selects an electricity supplier on behalf of its residents and businesses. Now that the town has adopted MEA, the Select Board will develop a plan to become the […]
Dear Editor: I have lived in the same home in Canton for all my years. When I decided to downsize, I wished to remain in Canton among dear friends and a rich life rooted in this community. To say it’s been a struggle to find a suitable place to live is an understatement. My needs […]
Dear Editor: At the May 22 annual town meeting, Canton voters will decide whether to authorize the Select Board to start the process for Municipal Energy Aggregation. The Canton Sustainability Committee supports energy aggregation and urges voters to attend town meeting to vote ‘Yes.’ Energy aggregation allows a town to use its bulk purchasing power […]
Dear Editor: I am hoping to be elected as this year’s moderator for Canton’s annual town meeting. ATM is scheduled to be held on Saturday, May 22, at 12:30 p.m. The plan is for it to last until all business has been concluded. Town leaders are working hard to plan a safe and efficient meeting. […]
Dear Editor: As a fairly new resident of Canton, I am appalled at the amount of trash I see along roadsides in our town. Route 138 is one I travel often and any trash dropped beside the road simply seems to stay there. Another eyesore is when I am getting off the freeway at Exit […]
Dear Editor: If I called my electric company (Eversource) to negotiate a lower price and demand that it purchase more from producers using renewable or clean sources (like wind, solar, hydro, geothermal), I would get nowhere. But suppose a town administrator calls and says: I am buying electricity for everyone in my town, residents, businesses […]
I’d like to thank the town of Canton for electing me to represent you on the Select Board. I am honored and humbled that you have once again placed your faith and trust in me. This is a responsibility that I do not take lightly, and I will represent you with the utmost transparency and […]
