Written by Bob Sprague   
Saturday, 05 April 2008
At the March 27 Candidates' Night, School Committee member Joseph Curran said he estimated legal expenses driven by the Coughlin-Bouris case were "close to $300,000." But the latest figures for legal fees appear to show that Curran's estimate is too high. The amount spent for such fees through February -- the latest figures available -- show a total of $212,775 spent for all legal work. The amount related to the Coughlin-Bouris case is most of that total, or $206,060.

Written by Charlotte Pierce   
Saturday, 29 March 2008
FOMR logo detailIf you’ve been to Menotomy Rocks Park with a bike or stroller lately, you’ve likely noted the new, smoother pathways, observed new native-species plantings, or thrown a stick for Fido to fetch out of the clean pond. Perhaps you’ve enjoyed Shakespeare in the Park at Menotomy or played with your kids on the playground installed by the Friends of Menotomy in 1996. Perhaps your child has attended a school field trip or a nature class at this beautiful natural park -- or perhaps you’ve attended an event like Earth Day, or the upcoming Menotomy Rocks Park grand reopening celebration (to be announced soon).
