West Lydius subdivision hits wet ground

GUILDERLAND — Before building 22 houses on West Lydius Street, the developers have to convince the town’s planning board that the property can accommodate 18. Robert and Saydra Doyle on Oct. 14 proposed a cluster subdivision on 58.5 acres at 2730 and 2738 West Lydius St., with 22 single-family lots, two stormwater-management lots, and three conservation areas, according to the board’s Oct. 14 agenda.

A governor who shows up for the Berkshires

It is one thing for a governor to know where the Berkshires are. It is another to understand what it takes to live here. I first encountered Maura Healey in January 2020, when I was serving on the Great Barrington Selectboard. I had traveled to the State House to testify on a home rule petition concerning the return of horse racing to the Great Barrington Fairgrounds.

PETER MOST: All hang together

It was inevitable, but it took 12 years, three votes, and a near tripling of the cost before voters agreed to replace the failing Monument Mountain Regional High School. No less inevitable is the merger of the Berkshire Hills and Southern Berkshire regional school districts. The question is how many votes and how many years it will take for voters to accept it. So far, the count is one vote and three years. Twelve years and three votes is the record for futility. Here’s hoping Sheffield does not take a run at it.

Stuyvesant Supervisor Rematch Pits Bridge Fight Against 14-Year Incumbent

Lee Jamison is challenging Stuyvesant Town Supervisor Ron Knott for the second consecutive year, hoping that a shift in the political winds and frustration over a long-closed bridge can finally flip a seat she has never managed to win. Jamison, a Democrat, lost last year's race against the Republican incumbent by just 112 votes, and the rematch is shaping up as a test of whether the small Columbia County town is still as reliably conservative as it has long been considered.
