In the News
Should non-resident taxpayers be permitted to serve on regulatory boards? It depends who you ask. Within Wellfleet, and among other towns on the Cape as well, the answers range from “yes” to “no” to “who knows.” See this week’s Banner for the breakdown on who’s allowed to call the shots.
In Provincetown: students march in silent protest of possible high school closing; police look for perpetrator of myspace.com hoax that targets part time police officer Donald Thomas; Burbank steps down from top post at Pilgrim Monument; Orion Haunstrup takes part in the Math Olympiad; Selectman David Nicolau may call fireworks question back for another vote on Monday.
In Truro: voters dodge the override bullet this year; summer SPED at Truro Central School cut back; Truro Selectmen throw a costly new iron in the fire over the ongoing negotiations with Provincetown for a new water supply site.
In Wellfleet: of three final candidates for the fire chief position, Abbott leads in scores; selectmen shy away from saying no to non residents on town regulatory boards.
In Eastham: residents with powerline transmission easements on their property express concern about what they see as over-zealous land clearing by NStar. Nauset ends tourney play with a solid showing in swimming and a first round loss on the ice; town seeks bids from planners for village center proposal.
In other news: bluebirds are back in increasing numbers delighting Cape birdwatchers; Seashore puts off wilderness suitability survey for now.
