The Trails Advisory Committee meton Tuesday, Aug. 13 to discuss theplacement of new trial markers on theEndean Trail system and the finaltouches of a brochure and website forNorwood’s trails in time for NorwoodDay on Sat., Sept. 7.

The Endean Trail ImprovementProject is still ongoing, according tochair Joseph Greeley. Norwood residentand Eagle Scout candidate Noah Kearnsis nearing completion of placing milemarkers along the trail. He is a recentNorwood High School graduate com-mitted to marking the cross country

course. He connected with Boy ScoutTroop 44 in Walpole to help mark thetrail.

“The scouts came with a carload ofposts, post holders and shovels,” mem-ber Marguerite Knapp said. “Noah wasthe foreman.”

“I think we can put our own markerson the same posts, so as not to inundatethe area with signs,” Sheehan said.

The posts are seven feet high. Thescouts also are designing signage. Therewill be additional information regard-ing the mileage and the ease of the ter-rain.The committee also is putting the fin-

Class of 59’gets together

The Norwood Airport Commission(NAC) met on Aug. 14 briefly to voteon approving the Fixed Base Operator(FBO) status of Boston Executive He-licopters (BEH).

The vote comes after the Townagreed to a settlement with BEH end-ing years of conflict. The Town has beenengaged in a lawsuit initiated by BEHfor more than four years, regarding whatBEH claimed was unfair treatment as itsought its FBO status.

The NAC voted 3-1, with memberMichael Sheehan voting against the ap-proval and Martin Odstrchel absent. Themotion was to allow BEH FBO statusso long as they provide proof of insur-

ance coverage for fuel spills andhangering.

“We’ve had some discussion on thisand we’d like to revisit the issue,” saidCommission Chair Mark Ryan beforethe vote.

Member John Corcoran said thissame vote was taken three years ago.

“We’re in the same situation today,it’s probably just an oversight by theirinsurance carrier,” he said, adding thathe knew in the subsequent years BEHhad that coverage, but now the Towndoes not have proof of that. “It’s verysimple to call them up; I do it all thetime.”

However, BEH Manager Christo-

pher Donovan said the requirements for proof of insurance arehazy and he’s not pleased with the situation.

“We have conflicting conditions and claims regarding our FBOpermit,” he said in an email. “The NAC first failed to take actionon Aug. 7 demanding once again new items for BEH. This iscontrary to the agreement they presented in front of the judge infederal court. They then ‘Approved’ our FBO at the Aug. 14 NAC

meeting, however they have prohibited BEH from selling fuel.”He said that since 2014, BEH has met and continued to meet

the “rules, regulations and standards at the airport for our FBOpermit.”

Ryan said after the meeting that the Town’s minimum stan-dards spell out exactly what they expect Donovan and BEH toprovide to the Town before they allow fuel sales in terms of in-surance coverage.

“Our minimum standards spell out the dollar amount and howit has to identify the airport and the NAC,” he said. “BEH in thepast has provided insurance that had a simple notation includingfueling and hangering coverage, and the current policy does notshow that and we just ask them to simply provide that so thecommission is sure that in the event of a fuel spill the Town isprotected. This has been provided in the past and I don’t know ifthis is an oversight.”

Ryan said that the Commission has been acting in the best in-terests of the Town and residents of Norwood.

“The bottom line is we’re doing this to protect the Town ofNorwood and its interests and we’re looking forward to this work-ing itself out,” he said. “I don’t see any reason why it shouldn’t.”

Donovan pointed out the costs associated with the lawsuit overthe past three to four years. The language of the settlement, amongmany other items, stipulated that the Town has to pay $750,000 toBEH.

Donovan said he is also concerned that Commissioner Odsrechelrefused to sign the actual settlement between the Town and BEH,and that Commissioner Kevin Shaughnessy and Sheehan had theTown’s lawyers, Michael Fee and Adam Simms, signed for them.

“The bottom line is we're doing this to pro-tect the Town of Norwood and its interestsand we're looking forward to this work-ing itself out,” he said. “I don't see anyreason why it shouldn't.”

On Aug. 20, the NorwoodZoning Board of Appeals (ZBA)met for a short session to dis-cuss the hotly-contested specialpermit application from UAVELLC for a bituminous concreteor asphalt plant at 973 Univer-sity Ave.

The applicant opted to with-

draw the application with preju-dice, and the ZBA voted unani-mously to approve the with-drawal.

The permit applicationcaused ire among residents andofficials alike. The proposal ini-tially failed at the ZBA morethan two years ago, as it neededa super majority, though the votewent 3-2 in favor. The applicantappealed the decision in land

court and lost, and in the interim,while that case was being heard,Town Meeting voted unani-mously – which doesn’t happenoften – to pass a prohibition onany new asphalt plants withinthe Town’s borders.

Letters to the Editor

ZBA continued from page 2

WHERE IS THEDISCONNECT WITH ZBA?

To the Editor:Dear Chairman Brady,First off, please understand

that I have a deep appreciationand respect for the storied ac-complishments that the ZBAhas delivered to the Town ofNorwood, over a long period oftime, in safeguarding our com-munity against potential harmfrom permitting malfeasancewithin the town’s zoning by-laws. That stated, I cannot, forthe life of me, understand howthe ZBA would ever entertainthe notion of approving a spe-cial permit for a second asphaltplant in Norwood, currentlyproposed for University Av-enue, in an area where ice skat-ing facilities are being built,and in close proximity to waterwells that serve our neighborsin Westwood. Should this as-phalt plant be built, this actionimperils local health and safety

standards, which, instinctively,should be of paramount con-cern to ALL boards inNorwood, including the ZBA.

As a current Norwood TownMeeting member, I urge you toemploy common sense, as wellas a modicum of vision for whatso many in our community al-ready see quite clearly: we doNOT want – nor do we need – asecond asphalt plant inNorwood. I respectfully urgethis board to not concern itselfwith potential litigation or lostrevenue streams from a foregonesecond asphalt plant. TownMeeting has already addressedthose concerns, and made thosedeliberations. That body hasalready spoken loudly, and withunanimity: NO second asphaltplant in Norwood.

Although the thoughts ex-pressed here are my own, pleasebe mindful that Norwood’sTown Meeting collective will isalso a reflection of the Norwood

Health Department mindset,which is steadfastly opposed tothis proposed plant, as well asthe mindset of the NorwoodBoard of Selectmen, who arestaunchly opposed to this pro-posed second asphalt plant aswell. All due respect, where isthe disconnect here? I urge youand the entire ZBA to unani-mously reject this proposedsecond asphalt plant on Univer-sity Avenue, when your groupconvenes again on Tuesday,August 20th. I am confidentthat the Norwood ZBA wouldnever intentionally sabotage theexpressed collective will ofNorwood Town Meeting in thismatter. I therefore urge you todo the right thing, and unani-mously vote to reject this pro-posed asphalt plant on Univer-sity Avenue in Norwood.

Michael J. Thornton, Jr.Town Meeting Member –

bad odors coming from the as-phalt plant at 635 Pleasant St.in Town.

The property on UniversityAve. is zoned as limited or lightmanufacturing, and the ZoningBylaw specifically excludes as-phalt and bituminous concretefrom that category. But as perthe Town’s Zoning Bylaw, insection 3.1.6 Notes to Table ofUse Regulations number 11, theowner has a right to seek a spe-cial permit at the Zoning Boardof Appeals. ZBA Chair ThomasBrady said at Tuesday’s meet-ing that while he was aware ofthe concerns from the Town,holding up a packet of what hesaid was 200 separate pieces ofcorrespondence from residentsand non residents alike, the ZBAhas to follow the Bylaw and al-low an applicant to come for-ward, regardless of public opin-ion.

“We have to allow fairnessfor everybody, including andespecially the applicants,” he

said. “The important part is thatfor the applicant, we have to ren-der that they have the sufficientability to come in or have theability to come in and apply forpermits, special permits, vari-ances etc.”

Brady also pointed out theyare a volunteer board.

“I think it’s imperative that Iexplain that all boards in Town,they’re all volunteer; nobodygets paid or does it as a full-timejob,” he said. “Everybody doesit with their heart and their brain,hopefully.”

Brady said he and the Boardread as much of the correspon-dence as they could, and encour-aged residents to have more en-gagement with Town govern-ment.

“I want to thank everybodywho corresponded, whether for

it or against it; I didn’t getthrough all of it, but I got somevery meaningful letters frompeople whether they lived in theTown or not,” he said. “As a tax-payer and a homeowner, I wantto see more of this, more in-volvement and not just opinionsat Town Meeting or opinions onFacebook though I do respect allof them, but get involved! If youhave something to say, say it.”

ZBA Member PatrickMulvehill said after the meetingthat the applicant is aware ofresidents’ and officials’ opposi-tion to the project, and that theapplicant will most likely notcome back, as he would have tohave a judge overturn the deci-sion of the Land Court. He saidthat’s not likely to happen.

“I think he got the message,”Mulvehill said.

Race attracts hundredsto benefit animal shelter

Hundreds came out to race and perhaps have a beer at the event dedicated to raise funds for a local dogshelter in Dedham.


Representatives from Shultz's Guest House came by to show the run-ners just what they were raising funds for.


Hundreds of people and 170runners took a pause to benefitfour-legged friends by participat-ing in the second annual CraftBrew 5K, held Sat., Aug. 17 atthe Percival Brewing Companyat the Norwood Space Center at83 Morse St.

The race, which had more ofa festival atmosphere, was heldthis year to benefit Shultz’s GuestHouse, a Dedham dog shelter,according to event organizer JimHenry.

“I am a member of theCharles River Running Club, andI also run my own running busi-ness on the side,” Henry said.“Last year we held the event ona Sunday. This year, we decidedto have it on a Saturday eveningand create a whole different at-mosphere with craft beers andwood-fired pizza.”

He explained that the coursewas different this year as well.

“The course goes through theEndean Trails System,” Henrysaid. “It starts at the brewery andgoes half on the road and half onthe ground. It also crosses a metalfootbridge twice.”

One special aspect this yearwas the feature of collapsible sili-cone water cups that could bereused, rather than traditionalplastic water bottles.

“We are trying to be environ-mentally conscious, so we hadthe idea of the collapsible cups,”he said. “Runners can fill theircups at three water stations along

the way. There is even a ringaround the cups so they can beattached to wrists while running.This cuts down on plastic waste.”

Deni Goldman of Shultz’sGuest House talked about theunique mission of the Dedhamshelter, which rescues dogs fromabusive situations and environ-mental hazards in North Caro-lina. “We rescue the dogs fromwoods and thickets down there,”she said. “Some of the conditionsthere are horrifying.

Ling awarded Sastavickas scholarshipJoseph and Viola

Sastavickas and their childrenused the Morrill Memorial Li-brary for many years. In theyears prior to Viola’s death,they received home deliveryservice through the OutreachDepartment. When Mrs.Sastavickas passed away in2006, her children made a gen-erous donation to the library toendow a perpetual $500 schol-arship in memory of theirmother. According to herdaughter, Kathy Sastavickas,the scholarship is “a fitting trib-ute to our beautiful mother andto the library and staff whichtreated her with great respectand affection.” Since then, theSastavickas family has madeadditional donations to theSastavickas Scholarship Fund

to ensure that the scholarship beawarded to a deserving recipi-ent. 2019 marks the tenth yearof the annual award.

This year a committee re-viewed the applications submit-ted and selected Elizabeth Lingto receive the Viola SastavickasScholarship. This committeeincluded the 2018-2019 Chair-man of the Library Board ofTrustees, Sarah E. Begg, theChapter Chair of the AFSCMELibrary Unit, Kate Tigue, andLibrary Director, CharlotteCanelli.

Elizabeth Ling is an out-standing student with an affin-ity for math and science. As ayoung child, Elizabeth becamean entrepreneur, selling beau-tiful pieces of origami art atcraft fairs and farmers’ markets.

She became a library page sev-eral years before graduatingfrom the Montrose School inMedfield. Hers is a “libraryfamily story”: Nancy TupperLing, her mother, has been anOutreach Librarian since 2011.Elizabeth’s younger sister, Sa-rah, is a library page who willgraduate from high school nextJune.

Elizabeth began her collegestudies at Northeastern Univer-sity last September and is pur-suing a BS in Mechanical En-gineering with a minor in Phi-losophy. In her own words,Elizabeth is “striving for a per-fect harmony between the sci-ences and the arts.” She usedthis scholarship to help fulfillher minor elective requirementsduring the summer semester.

ishing touches on a brochure onNorwood’s four trails, which itwill have ready in some formfor Norwood Day.

“Let’s all compile some ofour favorite pictures from eachof the trails,” committee mem-ber Ernie Paciorkowski said.“Then on Norwood Day, wecan run them on a loop on ascreen to show people why theyshould visit them.”

The brochure includesEndean Trail system, EllisPond, Shattuck Park andHennessey Park.

Sheehan added that thecommittee members will beneeded to staff a table to talkabout the committee andpresent a tri-folded brochurewith information about each ofthe trails and the conservationefforts there.

Members reviewed a colordraft with pictures of the trailsand a history of the committee,which had formerly been a sub-committee.

Also, Sheehan said thewebsite link for the Trails Ad-visory Committee will be op-

erational on the Town websiteby that time.

“Now we are putting out anewsletter with updates on ourupcoming walks and trails in-formation,” Sheehan said. “Atlast year’s Norwood Day, wegot about 240 to 250 emails.”

Because the Trails AdvisoryCommittee is not a 501(c)3nonprofit, Sheehan said themembers aren’t allowed to ac-cept donations directly. How-ever, donations can be made toNorwood Town Hall and ear-marked in the memo line to goto trails.

In other trails progress,Paciorkowski said that he had

discussions with the BostonSkating Club, and that “hewould be getting all his ducksin a row” to seek informal ac-cess for a trail route throughthe property, but only as aconnector.

“I met with them lastweek,” he said. “Theyhaven’t given us carteblanche access, but if it wereto be part of a trails system,it would be okay. They justdon’t want it to be a stand-alone trail.”

“That was a commontopic,” Sheehan added. “Plugin the Forbes Property, andit’s the same situation.”

The committee is also try-ing to coordinate a walk withthe Walpole Trails Commit-tee before the end of the sum-mer, Sheehan announced.

However, member Vic Ba-bel said that if the WalpoleTrails Committee is unable tocoordinate a time, he wouldbe happy to lead the walk, ashe is familiar with the terrain.

“It looked like it would bea good trail for a winter walk,”he said. “But it’s pretty welloverrun. And the smell is badnow because of the birds.”

The next meeting will beTues., Aug. 27 at 7 p.m. at TownHall.

Elizabeth is pictured with Kate Tigue, Head of Children’s Services atthe Morrill Memorial Library, and Sarah E. Begg, Chairman of theBoard of Trustees.

Goldman noted that the av-erage care cost per dog beforehe or she can be placed for adop-tion is about $1,400. This in-cludes spaying or neutering,shots, feeding and other carethat Shultz’s Guest House pro-vides. Medical costs are cheaperin North Carolina, and are per-formed there before the dogs arebrought to the shelter.

The cost for adopting a dogis $500, she added.

Family Fun Day a hitJefJefJefJefJeff Sullivf Sullivf Sullivf Sullivf SullivanananananStaff Reporter

Hundreds of residents cameout to the Waters Church inNorwood for Family Fun Day onSunday, Aug. 11.

The event, according to orga-nizers, is to bring people togetherin an informal setting to buildcommunity between membersand non members. Church mem-ber John Malone said Sundayservices can seem somewhat for-mal, so this is a way to let looseduring the summer.

“We’ve done it as long as Ican remember,” he said. “It’sbeen at least 10 or 15 years.People invite family and friends,so it’s not just people who are inthe church. We call it fellowship,and it’s a way for people to meeteach other.”

Malone said many of the vol-unteers don’t necessarily knoweach other at the start of the event,but when they are perseveringtogether through the crowds ofhungry participants, they get toknow each other very well, veryfast.

“We have a grill team whodon’t really know each other andyou get to meet people a littledifferently than just at a serviceon Sunday,” he said. “We have alot of people volunteering at thegames, we have face painting forthe kids and we have a DJ.There’s a lot going on and it justbrings the whole community to-gether.”

Volunteer Jason Milton saidthey estimated about 300 peopleshowed up.

“At least, we did about 350hamburgers and probably thatmany hot dogs,” he said.

Malone said the businesscommunity comes together tohelp them celebrate too.

with friends in a fun atmosphere.“I am training for a half-mara-

thon, so I thought this would bea great run,” Leann Caricchi ofNorwell said as she waited for aNorwood friend to join her. “PlusI am a dog lover. When I heardabout the charity that was cho-sen, I just had to participate.”

Caricchi, a running enthusi-ast, added that the idea of thecollapsible cups as opposed toplastic bottles, was another de-termining factor.

Steve MacFarland said hewanted to run the race when helearned about the markings of theEndean Trail System by a localBoy Scout in The NorwoodRecord.

“Once I read about it in thelocal paper, I had to come downand check it out,” MacFarland, aNorwood resident, said.

Runner number one, JesseAguilar, said that he had neverbeen on the trials before, either,but wanted to run them with hisfriend, Darrin Reynolds.

“And you have everythinghere today,” he said. “You have

sors too, like the 99 RestaurantChain always donates popcorn,which is really helpful. ThriventFinancial donates money too, andTaylor Rental does provide all thegames and tables, but we do payfor that,” he said.

He added the day was perfectweather, but setting up is a lot ofwork.

“We opened at 12:30 p.m. butwe were setting up at 7:30 in themorning. However, when youhave a day like this you just can’tbeat it,” he said. “The little breezehelps.”

Volunteers Courtney Monroeand Linda Osei-Mensah saidtheir favorite part about the eventis mingling with folks they maynot have before. They saidthey’ve been helping with theevent for four years now.

“It’s just meeting new people,and it doesn’t mean you have togo to the church to be here,” Osei-Mensah said.

“It’s one of our best events,”Monroe said. “It’s really great toget know everybody.”

Elder Pastor Kofi Adjorlolosaid he was happy to see theevent growing and see residentshe may not see on any given Sun-day.

“We’ve all got that same onefoundation that I can love you asmyself, and I can treat you withthe respect I have experiencedwith the love of the Almighty,”he said.

Resident Jim Shea said helooks forward to the event everyyear.

“I’ve been here for 10 years,I love the church and I love thepeople,” he said. “We had a greatday today, it was perfect weatherand no one was really cooking,the breeze really helped.”

One issue is the engine can have what’s called a “typewriter tick.” Is this an engine damagingpiston slap, looseness of the push rods on the crank, or something else, and is it a reliable engine? Secondquestion for you is the 3–4 shifter fork. There were reports of these breaking in the Tremec transmissions.I have not heard of this issue in some time but I also have not heard if Ford came out with a replacement part.I prefer the Mustang over the Camaro, as I believe the Mustang has fewer issues and has better long-termreliability. The Camaro is the better track-focused car and I feel that if I do not purchase a pony car soon,I will lose the possibility to own one of the last V-8 engines.

From the Doctor: The 5.0 liter Coyote V/8 is a great engine. I have one in my Factory 5 Cobra kit car witha Tremec 5-speed transmission, not the 6 speed that is in the Mustang. I know a lot of Mustang owners thatdrive their cars hard and have not had any engine or transmission failures. Just remember that any part canfail under heavy racing conditions. If the Mustang is what you want, you should buy it and enjoy it.

To the Doctor: To my shock after purchasing a 2019 GMC Yukon Denali XL, I opened the hood and observedrusted manifolds on the 6.2 liter engine. When I contacted GMC, they said the vehicle was under warranty andthe dealer would take care of problem. But the dealer said that’s the way the SUV comes and would not replacethe manifolds because they said they all come rusted. How can GMC sell a new SUV with rusted manifolds andnot replace them when the SUV is under warranty? How can I get this problem resolved?

From the Doctor: Light rust color on some exhaust manifolds is not unusual. You will also start to see ruston suspension bolts and spots on the frame over time. The aluminum will show signs of light corrosion. Youshould contact the dealer and meet with the local zone office to have the vehicle looked at with you there andshow them your concerns.

A HISTORY OFCENSORSHIP IN BOSTON

Celebrate Banned Books Week 2019 atthe Morrill Memorial Library with a programby author Neil Miller, of Tufts University,on Thursday September 26 at 7:00 pm. Firstestablished in 1878, and very much alive intothe 1940s and ‘50s, the New England Watchand Ward Society functioned as the region’s“moral guardian.” Funded by Boston firstfamilies, the organization banned books andstage productions, raided gambling dens andhouses of prostitution, and crusaded againstburlesque. Neil Miller, award-winning jour-nalist and author of the book “Banned in Bos-ton,” presents a lively and entertaining talkabout the history of censorship in Boston,particularly how the Watch and Ward – andlocal district attorneys – transformed the“Athens of America” into a national laugh-ing stock. The vice crusaders’ targets rangedfrom books by now-classic American authorslike Hemingway, Faulkner, and Dreiser, toperformances of plays by Lillian Hellman andEugene O’Neill, to Boston’s legendary bur-lesque house, the Old Howard. Miller, theauthor of six published nonfiction books, isa lecturer at Tufts University.
