BY RYAN GRANNAN-DOLL STONEBRIDGE PRESS STAFF WRITER CHARLTON — A Charlton business is at odds with the town over a “puzzling” set of allegations. Dudley residents Cathy and Jeff Helgerson, who are married, are allegedly operating their business at 79 Bay Path Road, without two required permits and are violat- ing the conditions of the approved site plan, according to town documents and officials. Jeff Helgerson, in a telephone interview, said he was an excavator and septic tank pumper, but was unclear when asked which businesses were operating out of the site. Building Commissioner and Zoning Enforcement Officer Curtis Meskus has, in an Aug. 7 letter to the Helgersons, ordered the couple to stop using a large red building on the site.

DES HOLDS DAY OF WELCOME FOR STUDENTS AND PARENTS Adam Minor photos More than 170 students and their parents gathered at Dudley Elementary School Friday,Aug. 22, for the school’s open house. Students were provided with a map of the school and sent on a “scavenger hunt” to find important rooms in the school and meet their teachers for the year. “It’s exciting for the families,” said Principal Terri Cafelle. “We’re trying to get rid of the butterflies. We want students and their parents to love the school and we want them to feel comfortable here.”

It was not that he wasn’t a strong writer; nothing he wrote about for our weeklies was ever going to catch widespread atten- tion. I’d find myself thinking, “I wish I had 10 more Garys.” In fact, my predecessor, who had hired him, once defended a poor personnel choice by saying, “At least I hired Gary.” That’s why if I owned a 2009 Toyota Corolla Matrix, I would nickname it Gary.
