Deputy chief position not needed

Dear Editor: I would like to comment on the proposed town meeting article to create a deputy chief position within the police department. It is the position of the selectmen and chief of police that the position exists but is unfilled. I would point out that the position was replaced by two lieutenants; subsequently, a […]

Celebration of landfill solar farm may be premature

It was thoughtful of you to mention dad as an “icon,” though he would have cringed at that description, being the humble man he was. He lived and worked with people such as Maurice Ronayne Sr., […]

Canton neighborhood thanks local citizen

Dear Editor: I’m writing to thank and praise a local citizen. Patrick Gibbs is a homeowner, firefighter and landscaper. He is also a decorated Marine who proudly served his country.
