To the readers of “One Bad Rhyme Deserves Another,” In a political climate such as today’s -- both nationally and, unfortunately, locally – where disagreement has become absolute and vitriolic, I’m afraid what was intended as a gentle teasing of Kevin’s coverage of the recent Liberty Ledge/Sewataro meeting might be taken as serious criticism.…

As a member of the SHC for 44 years, some of which was Chairman, I would like to let the public know how  important it is to support this town Commission. I knew Miss Hosmer and attended SHC before she passed away in 1978.  The town is very fortunate that she left the house, furnishings and her…

Dear Kevin, your reporting in rhyme To new journalistic heights it did climb, You summarized well The unanimity, which was swell But what was missing was something sublime. One item was left off your list. It was something I think that you missed. What was said in the Weekly Took a slant that just…

This past May, Sudbury Town Meeting did something rare: it gave the Sudbury Housing Authority (SHA) a clear, funded answer to a question the town had been wrestling with for over 3 years.

Having lived in Sudbury for sixty years and attended most Town Meetings, I’m appalled at what I witnessed at our Special Town Meeting.   I could not believe the booing, the disruption and the nastiness that was shown by some Sudbury citizens attending the meeting.  I felt for our Moderator who tried to control the meeting to…

Although Sudbury has clung proudly to the tradition of open town meeting, the proceedings and attendance at our recent Annual Town Meeting (May 4 – 6) and the May 20 Special Town Meeting indicate that we Sudbury residents are misusing our legislative body and disdaining other functions of town government. Attendance at these two…

Dear Fellow Sudbury Residents I have been a resident of Sudbury for 40 years and have attended most town meetings.  I’ve never experienced such disrespect and disregard for the process as I did at the Special Town Meeting on May 20.  Most importantly, I find it incredibly hypocritical that the call for the question on Article…
