Michael J. McGlynn, Daddy's Little Boy, and the Ruination of Medford

 Massachusetts has 351 cities and towns in total, which are divided into 14 counties:

Based on the form of government, as of 2023, there are 292 towns and 59 cities in Massachusetts.

As I'm doing some research for my article on the evil Michael J. McGlynn, we are uncovering some pertinent facts: 59 cities in Massachusetts, 50 have mayors, three also have city managers with the mayors* – Elected from City Council

November 29, 2015, nine years ago this Friday, the Boston Globe headlined screamed: Medford mayor bids farewell after 28 years - The Boston Globe His wife Sheila and his hand in the air, a far cry from when Sheila McGlynn refused to take his hand walking in to an inauguration at Alden Chambers. For all to see on Channel 1 on Comcast when they cablecast that event. Upcoming story on McGlynn to praise nine years without the s.o.b.

All other residents can obtain a permit online beginning November 18 and in person on December 2

 

(MEDFORD) — If your street participates in the Resident Parking Program or if you participate in the Municipal, Business, Realtor or Home Healthcare Worker Parking Programs, it’s time to renew your annual parking permit (valid January 1, 2025-December 31, 2025). Your 2024 parking permit will be expired after December 31, 2024 so renew it before then to avoid getting ticketed once the calendar turns to 2025.

 

Seniors (ages 65+) can renew their parking permits in person beginning on November 18. The City recommends coming early to avoid long lines. All Senior parking permits must be purchased in-person at the Parking Department in City Hall – Room 110. Please bring a valid vehicle registration and driver’s license. The name on the license must match the registration and both documents must have your current Medford address on them.

 

All other resident parking permits will open for renewal online on November 18 and in-person on Monday, December 2. If obtaining a permit in-person, please bring a current valid Massachusetts registration with your Medford address printed by the MA Registry of Motor Vehicle, in the "Garaged Address" if the "Owner-Mailing Address" is different.

 

To alleviate wait times at the Parking Department window, the City is encouraging residents to follow a tiered schedule for coming to City Hall to renew permits based on neighborhood. This is a suggestion and is not mandatory.

  • South Medford / Hillside: Week of November 18 & November 25
  • Wellington/Glenwood: Week of December 2
  • West Medford: Week of December 9
  • North Medford (Fulton Heights)/Lawrence Estates/Medford Square area

Alleged Sex Buyers to Be Exposed in Medford on Route 16 in Cambridge Superior Court Will among the alleged be Caraviello, Scarpelli, Bears, all the MacGilvrays and Fat Paul Mackowski be among the alleged and the accused?

 this is a parody, of course

4040 Mystic Valley Parkway, Medford, MA 02155   Allegedly for Quickie Caraviello, 5 minutes could cost him a lifetime in prison


The Supreme Judicial Court rejected the johns’ latest appeal to keep the proceedings and records at Cambridge District Court under wraps in a decision essentially upholding a clerk magistrate’s ruling in the case.
Thursday’s SJC decision was the alleged sex-buyer’s third legal loss on the issue. Pending further activity at the district court, the identities remain sealed for now. But in accordance with the SJC decision, their hearings in Cambridge District Court will be open to the public.
A clerk at the Cambridge court told the Herald Thursday that those hearings have not been scheduled yet. The hearings will likely be scheduled for late January, or early February, the clerk’s office said.
The full court on Thursday upheld Justice Scott Kafker’s singular February order to deny the johns’ appeal of the Cambridge District Court’s decision to open preliminary hearings to the public, but to still keep the preliminary criminal documents sealed.
The court found that the “the clerk-magistrate acted reasonably and within the proper scope of her discretion” when she decided to grant public access to the hearings since the U.S. Attorney’s office public notice that the defendants were powerful — including “unidentified government officials, corporate executives, and others in positions of power, wealth, and responsibility — raised legitimate public concerns about potential favoritism and bias if such hearings were held behind closed doors, and that these concerns outweighed the interests in continued anonymity for the Does.”

passage of Question 7 will also allow us to retain those currently employed in our schools, will allow for a yearly Chromebook refresh

 

Hi Joseph,

I hope everyone had a Happy Veterans Day weekend.
It has been a week since the election and the passage of Questions 7 and 8.
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your review, research, and support for the two questions that will help us fund our schools and a DPW Crew dedicated to our streets and sidewalks.
The passage of Question 7 will also allow us to retain those currently employed in our schools, will allow for a yearly Chromebook refresh, and allow us to maintain our school buildings.
We will be transparent as we proceed with the process, spending, and budgeting.
Sincerely,

Breanna Lungo-Koehn
