Charlton will keep its Flock cameras, overriding Town Meeting vote

CHARLTON – The Select Board dug its heels in on Flock cameras, declining to suspend the technology at a meeting that saw members clash with each other and the public. The Nov. 10 meeting came after an Oct. 19. Special Town Meeting where attendees overwhelmingly voted in support of a petition requesting the Police Department halt its contract with Flock Safety. The petition, which was nonbinding and also sought the deletion of Charlton driver data, received 245 votes in favor and 56 against. The Oct. 19 vote was met with applause after a half dozen people spoke in favor of doing away with Flock. One person spoke against the petition. "These aren't simply cameras protecting our town, they're part of a growing interconnected surveillance network across America," said resident Michelle Chalmers, the author of the petition, at the October meeting. A month later, the board rebuffed the effort, deciding against taking action on the surveillance technology, which aggregates information on vehicles' license plates and other characteristics in a database that can be queried. "In my opinion, this is a great system. It's protecting our residents. And I will wholeheartedly support not removing it," said Select Board member Barbara Zurawski. Earlier

New management at New England's only Lee's Sandwiches location

The Lee’s Sandwiches location at 68 Stafford St., Worcester, recently transitioned to new management just ahead of the busy holiday rush. Located in the Webster Square Plaza, the business is part of a growing number of casual eateries anchoring the area. The corporate-owned/operated store has introduced a new leadership team, led by acting manager Daniel Fuentes of Southbridge. Tracey Pham of Worcester and siblings were franchise owners who opened the quick-service restaurant at Webster Square Plaza in August 2025. Family members have stepped away to focus on their individual career ventures. Lee’s Sandwiches is a West Coast family-owned Vietnamese-American fast-casual chain famous for its banhi mi Vietnamese-style sandwiches. The Worcester store is currently the company’s only New England location. Fans of the signature sandwiches, house-made baquettes, croissants, all-day breakfast sandwiches, signature Lee’s iced coffees, appetizers, pastries, etc., can rest easy as Fuentes confirms they will remain. Customers also stand to benefit from a few price drops. A new express counter includes pre-packaged treats and to-go items like canned condensed milk. “It’s all about saving our customers time and fitting their needs,” said Fuentes. “Convenience.” The Vietnamese ice-coffee menu here is extremely popular, according to Fuentes. The store also serves brewed

Guindon: Watson’s injury could spell trouble for UMass’ bowl-game hopes

After an unprecedented 4-0 start to the 2026 season, the Massachusetts football team has seen its early momentum fade, managing just one win over its last five matchups. Part of that decline stemmed from a laundry list of injuries on both sides of the ball, sidelining several key starters who helped fuel the Minutemen’s (5-5, 2-4 Mid-American Conference) historic start. Among them, William “Pop” Watson III’s ankle sprain was the most notable, holding the Springfield, Mass., native out of two games following the opening stretch.
