By Linda Rosencrance TAB Staff Writer ayor Thomas M. Menino has agreed to support members of the Oak Square com­ M munity who oppose plans by the Crittenton Hastings House to develop more than three ac~ of open space to create subsidiz.ed hoot_ing. Until last week, the mayor had refused to talce a stand on the issue, saying that Crittenton Hastings House had not yet provided the city with any plans for the project. He also urged Crittenton officials to discuss their pro­ posal with the community. The mayor's decision to oppose the plans comes after widespread, forceful neighborhood opposition to Crittenton's plans to build 18-20 units of affordable housing on the wooded parcel of land adjoining its IO Perthshire Road facility. ''Last Thursday I got a call from Mayor Menino say­ ing he was going to support our position to preserve the open space," said Jeanne Demers, an attorney who is the chairwoman of the Crittenton Woods Committee, HOUSE, page 33 Police officer Louis Relerford walks in front or a wall that makes the issue clear: Graffiti is a blight on the loc:al scene.

When ~dents stand \.\OW AIOfJf ~ .mr . firm, politicians listen ~STALL V-C,U\ps IN veryone who suspects that government does not listen to individ­ U: \(\t>S \N5TE#>? ual residents and taxpayers has good news on the front page of Ethis week's newspaper. Mayor Menino appears to have heard the voices of the hundreds of Oak Square residents who have been urging for a new plan for the open land owned by Crittenton Hastings House. He reportedly will ask Crittenton officials to consider a plan that would put the proposed housing in a structure that has already been built. Much of the credit for helping get the word from the community to City Hall· goes to Jean Demers, who has been an articulate and forceful spokeswoman. Another large slice of the credit goes to those residents who took the time to make phone calls, write letters, attend meetings - in short, who stood up to be counted. Is the battle over? Probably not. More conversation is needed, with Crittenton House and residents taking part. Few deny that the services that are offered by Crittenton Hastings House are important or that they are badly needed. And the institution will remain a part of the neigh­ borhood, whatever the final decision may be. It is important that whatever damage has been inflicted to the rela­ tionship between the institution and the residents begin to be repaired. But it is important that a basic message be passed on: When a neigh­ borhood organizes itself and speaks with a clear and united voice, it will be listened to. Plan to target 'taggers' SPEAK-OUT! A modest proposal Now I expect them to do the right thing and admit that merits local support they have been lying to everyone in Allston and Brighton Dear Ms. Reilinger, I have a proposal for you.

"My father held my mother's hand from the day he met her until the day he died," Philip Goldman said. His father died holding his wife's hand at their Brighton home, Goldman said.
