'Despicable.' Taunton City Council OKs budget after heated lawyer fight

After a heated debate, Taunton city councilors voted 7-1 to approve the supplemental budget they rejected two weeks ago, without any changes and without a budget line item specifically for an attorney for the City Council. Previously, the Council voted 5-4 to reject the supplemental budget because it did not contain funding for an attorney specifically for the City Council . The supplemental budget contains funding for firefighters, funds the pension of a city employee serving in the military, and also adds $481,000 to the city's reserve account where it can be used in the event of an economic downturn or other financial challenge. At the most recent Tuesday, Nov. 10, council meeting, Chief Financial Officer Patrick Dello Russo said that hypothetically, money was available for the council to hire their own attorney. But he said that he would not make the money available until the Council came to an agreement with City Solicitor Matt Costa about the role of such an attorney. Costa, for his part, said that he had "legal concerns" but that he was "open to having the discussion." Ultimately, City Councilor Debra Botellio said that "we need to pass this for the sake of the people

Taunton dad had too many model trains. So he opened a biz for all ages

Taunton resident Joseph Moreton had a problem: he had too many model trains. "We have a really small home" and have "four kiddos," his wife Gabrielle Moreton said. "He would always bring out the trains with the kids, and you would always have to take them and put them away because there's no space at all." "One day he's like, you know what? I need a space so we can keep them out all the time," she said. "Then he's like, even better yet, I would love for the public to come and enjoy it as well." That idea became Mass Model Railroad Club at 52 Main St. in downtown Taunton . The business houses Joseph's collection of model trains for the public to drive, and also allows people to bring their own trains in to drive on the tracks inside the facility. Joseph said that the business appeals to anyone "from 5 years old up until death, really." Here's what we know. Who is the new Miss Taunton? Meet Miss Taunton and Miss Taunton's Teen 2027.

Joseph Case football duo ready for Abington playoff showdown

SWANSEA — Two players who have made a difference in the Joseph Case football team 's resurgence this fall have been juniors Troy Medas and Cooper Watson. The two Cardinals defensive players have created havoc for opposing teams all season long. "What they both bring together, which I think bleeds into the rest of the defense, is they are just tough kids," first-year head coach Mike Cloutier said. "There's no backing down in them. When the game gets tough, they get tougher." The Swansea natives will be tested against No. 3 Abington in Thursday's Division 6 Round of 8 football matchup, beginning at 6 p.m. Watch MA high school football on NFHS The Green Wave (7-2) can certainly run with the football as proven in their opening day win over Longmeadow, tallying nearly 300 yards on the ground. Quarterback Jack Reilly is also accurate throwing the football and crafty in the pocket. Medas, a 6-2, 185-pound linebacker, and Watson, a 6-4, 210-pound defensive end use their size, speed and toughness to create real problems for offenses. They also work in tandem to attack the running and passing game. Both made huge plays in last week's upset over defending Division 6

Acushnet’s St. Gelais flips seat from Dem to Rep

Last week’s election results took a little bit longer to count than usual. The Neighb News had to go to print with some races and ballot questions still not decided. Now, 99% of the votes are in. Domestic mailed-in ballots postmarked by 11/3 had to be in by 11/6. Ballots mailed from outside the US have until 11/13 to arrive and still be counted. So counting cannot be finished until after then. The results need to be certified by 11/18.

Army football commit leads Barnstable football past Milford in Elite 8

MILFORD -- Anthony Parrella had his fingerprints all over the Barnstable High football team's 35-14 upset over No. 2 Milford in the Division 3 Elite Eight on Thursday, Nov. 12. Parrella returned an interception 95 yards for a score and added a pair of rushing touchdowns, one a 51-yard burst, for the No. 7 Red Hawks (7-3). Barnstable advances to the Final Four and will play the winner of Friday's game between No. 3 Marshfield and No. 6 North Attleboro. After trailing 14-7 at halftime, Barnstable scored 28 unanswered points in the second half. Milford got on the board first, with a 3-yard touchdown run by Wanderson Dos Santos and a successful PAT from Tyler Stewart. Barnstable's Perrella ran one in for a touchdown to tie it up, but Milford led again going into the second half. Just before halftime, Milford connected on what seemed at the time to be a momentum-swinging play. Vincent Loscerbo completed a pass to Jaxson Finnimore. As Barnstable rallied to tackle Finnimore, he lateraled to Eli Rosenberg who darted down the sideline for a 52-yard TD with 18 seconds left in the half to push Milford's lead to 14-7. Enter Parrella.
