Letter: Vote for Right Team for North Adams

Letter to the EditorPrint Story | Email Story

To the Editor:

Hi there! How many North Adams folks know that Election Day is on Tuesday, Nov. 7? How many residents realize that the current mayor is up for re-election? Luckily for us, the signs on the lawn of City Hall remind us of our civic duty.

Me, I voted early right there in City Hall, for nine members for City Council (phew!) plus the city mayor. I'm eager to earn bragging rights for electing the right team. Because, coming soon, North Adams will be reviewing the 10-year update to our Vision 2030 Comprehensive Plan.

We have made progress, despite the COVID-19 setback, and now we are looking ahead to a prosperous future. Vote, and get the right team on board in City Hall. Thank you.

Education Sustainability Group Launches Website, Talks Engagement

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires.com
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. – The group studying the potential for more collaboration among North County school districts Wednesday saw a website built for their project and discussed how it will gather input from community members over the next 10 months.
 
“The website is actually live,” consultant Jake Eberwein of Berk12 told the North Berkshire Educational Sustainability Study steering committee in a meeting in the Drury High School library. “We can certainly do some edits.
 
“This is the official launch, tonight, I guess. There are no dead links, but there are areas without a lot of content.”
 
Eberwein showed the committee sections of the nbess.org website, including the resources page, which will be key to keeping residents informed about the study’s findings and collecting information from those residents.
 
“The last link is the contact page,” Eberwein said. “It allows people to give us their name. If they want to ask a question, great. If they want to just get on the distribution list, that’s great, too. … I think it’s critically important that when people have a question, they get a response.
 
“It’s critical people feel this is an open and transparent process.”
 
Among the resources on the project’s website is a slide show that framed Wednesday’s presentation from Eberwein, Berk12’s Brendan Sheran and Robert Putnam, like Eberwein a retired long-time administrator in Berkshire County who is helping compile historical research for the group.
