Irishjimgal- obviously you are frustrated. No one is bashing the DPW workers. If there is a lack of resources - most townspeople are likely unaware of the specifics. How much money is grafton allotting per mile of road compared to other towns? How old is the equipment, do we have enough trucks? For the average tax payer, reading the budget wouldn't put things into proper perspective. It's obvious from outside appearances that the building is past it's useful life but pointing out specifics is much more helpful in getting the word out versus accusing townspeople of not caring. That coupled with our observations that the roads aren't as clear as they could be will hopefully bring about change. View Comment
Nearby towns were dealing with the same storm and were better able to clear roads & sidewalks. As a result their kids had school today. A review needs to take place on how we can better clear our streets. Each storm I've noticed that surrounding towns' roads are down to bare pavement while Grafton's are snowy and narrow. There is always room for improvement View Comment
This is consistently true every storm. Westboro roads are markedly better treated and cleared than Grafton roads. You can actually see a clear difference at town lines. View Comment
Seriously? Alright guys lets not worry about anything! Jojojohnson says everything's fine! Who cares about zoning laws, permits, or protocol. Lol. View Comment
I am so glad that our Town is doing its due diligence with regard to this potentially dangerous issue. Mr. Priscoli has no respect for the Town of Grafton's valid concerns and obviously no respect for authority. The arrogance exhibited by Priscoli in telling the Board of Selectmen Tuesday night that a tank of that size was being delivered the next day is mind-numbing. Thanks to all those involved in putting our citizens' safety first. View Comment
I'm not sure why would invest $4.5 million into a building this old when it could be replaced for $11 million. I'm certain there will be more necessary repairs in the not too distant future. Please re-think allocating these funds! View Comment
I could pull articles off the Internet as well where abusive men get visitation and kill their kids and/or ex-wives.
You sound like an bitter person. You should google anger management. View Comment
The Architect should be on the hook here. The original design and the approved solution are both unsightly. Unfortunately it looks like the building committee's choices were limited. View Comment
@Male_DV_Victim..
How about instead of assuming he's the victim, we wait to see what the courts determine? There's a child out there in the middle of this that is either suffering from abuse or from parents not putting her first. View Comment
The intersection at 2 Grafton Common where Millbury St meets North St is dangerous. The South St traffic does not yield and visibility is poor due to those parking in this area. An accident waiting to happen. All intersections at the Common should be studied! View Comment
I think the bigger issue has been that the bags are too thin. They aren't strong enough and tear easily. That...coupled with the inconvenience of buying the bags and being limited to what fits in the bags...is why we have a local Grafton rubbish removal company pick up our rubbish. View Comment
I was yelled by the owner at as well. There are some real anger issues there. And I'm aware of at least 3 other separate independent incidents. Will not go back. View Comment
Personally I've nearly been hit by cars entering the common from Upton St that do not yield when bearing right onto North St. The line of sight at this intersection is limited as well since people keep parking opposite Peggy's Place at the newly installed "No Parking Signs.". I agree that the common is beautiful. I'm in favor of the study as long as we use the info gathered to better the traffic flow & keep drivers & pedestrians safe while maintaining the charm & beauty of the space. View Comment
