Feb. 20 -25, 2020 9:40 P.M Dorchester Reporter “The News and Values Around the Neighborhood” Volume 37 Issue 8 Thursday, February 20, 2020 50¢ Judge strikes down verdicts against two former Walsh aides No quid pro quo, he says BY ALANNA DURKIN RICHER ASSOCIATED PRESS A federal judge last week tossed aside the convic- tions of two former aides of Boston Mayor Marty Walsh who were charged with bullying music festival organizers into hiring union workers. Kenneth Brissette, the city’s former director of tourism, and Timothy Sullivan, who was chief of intergovernmental affairs, were convicted in fed- eral court last in August of conspiring to extort the organizers of the Boston Calling music festival by withholding city permits. US District Judge Leo Sorokin said that he was overturning the jury’s guilty verdict because the government failed to prove the existence of a quid pro quo. “Neither Brissette nor Sullivan received a personal payoff or any other cognizable benefit in connection with the charged conduct,” Sorokin wrote in his ruling. Lawyers for the men applauded the decision and said their clients are “extremely gratified to have SMILES ALL AROUND FOR TET been acquitted.” US Senator Edward Markey and Mayor Martin Walsh were among those entertained by a traditional “Today’s ruling is consistent with our arguments dragon dance on Sunday during the annual Tet in Boston Lunar New Year celebration at Boston College that the evidence in this case did not support the High School on Morrissey Boulevard.

For years the primary commercial center of Roxbury — a majority-black neighborhood — bore the name of Thomas Dudley, a colonial Massachusetts governor who enabled slavery. Now, with two out of three landmarks stripped of Dudley’s name, advocates are pushing to check off Dudley Square Library as well. The station and square are renamed after the Nubia Empire, which dominated northeast Africa in ancient times.

COURTESY OF WIKIMEDIA COMMONS The campaign to redefine the city’s Dudley trifecta began around six years ago by the Black Community Information Center, which later founded the Nubian Square Coalition. As governor, Dudley sponsored the passage of the “Body of Liberties” in 1641 which legalized slavery in the colony. His son Joseph Dudley later took the same office, and continued to enforce this legislation until the 18th century. https://dailyfreepress.com/2020/02/20/mbtas-dudley-station-to-become-nubian-station/[1/17/21, 6:56:53 PM] MBTA’s Dudley Station to become Nubian Station – The Daily Free Press NSC chair and BCIC director Sadiki Kambon said selecting a new name for the area did not come easy, at first.

Hart, Principal Re: Traffic Impact and Access Memorandum Matthew Duranleau, EIT Proposed Recreational Marijuana Dispensary 232 Boylston Street Newton, Massachusetts VHB has conducted a traffic assessment to determine the suitability and potential impacts of a recreational marijuana dispensary (the Project) at 232 Boylston Street (Route 9) in Newton, Massachusetts (the Site). Specifically, the Project involves the conversion of an existing jewelry store into a recreational marijuana dispensary. This memorandum includes an evaluation of the existing traffic operations and safety; assessment of future conditions without the Project; an estimate of projected traffic volumes for the Project; and its potential impact on future traffic operations in the area. Site Location and Proposed Development The Site is located at 232 Boylston Street (Route 9) in Newton, Massachusetts. The Site currently includes one building of approximately 5,484 square feet (sf) formerly occupied by the Shreve, Crump & Low jewelry store. The Project includes renovations to the building that will reduce the gross square footage of the proposed recreational marijuana dispensary to approximately 4,825 sf. The Site is located adjacent to the Capital Grille restaurant to the west and the mixed-use Chestnut Hill Square development to the east and south and is connected internally to these two parcels via a driveway on the south side of the Site. Under Existing conditions, the Site is accessed via an entrance-only driveway to the west of the building on Route 9 eastbound that is shared with the Capital Grille, as well as a full-access driveway to the east that is shared with Chestnut Hill Square.
