Mello’s First Months Go Smoothly
GEORGETOWN – The only issue at the new G. Mello Disposal Corp.’s Transfer Station since it opened two months ago was one lithium battery caught fire. The fire was put out in minutes, even before the Georgetown Fire Department arrived minutes later, by a highly sophisticated suppression system. “It is surprising how uneventful it has been. Customers have adapted quickly,” said Mark Van Weelden, director of Mello’s business development. The worst fears by neighbors, other residents and town officials that the 150...

Demolished March 11, 2025, But Never Forgotten.” Without fanfare, the sign on 10-foot solid granite pillars was erected close to the road and facing it, just to the left of where the house’s driveway was. “An astonishing...

Changing Tides Café Serves George Howell Coffee
NEWBURYPORT – If you are looking for a cozy coffee and baked goods shop in downtown Newburyport, you may want to try Kimberly Dillon’s Changing Tides Café on Pleasant Street. Despite being a few steps off the well-trodden sidewalks of State and Pleasant streets, the popular cafe caters to a cadre of locals who gather daily, particularly on Fridays – donut day. Some out-of-towners from as far away as Ipswich and Haverhill have found Kim’s shop, drawn by word that she is the only place on the North Shore that brews...

Trucks at Zibell Farm Again
GEORGETOWN – To the shock of neighbors, who thought their years-long nightmare was over, excavation of Zibell Farm at 214 North St. started again last week with the town permitting the removal of asphalt millings.

Of Flags, Open Meeting Law, Process
Notes and Tidbits By Lonnie Brennan GEORGETOWN ‒ Just a few additional notes from the recent Georgetown Selectboard’s meeting: Flag: The board met in a meeting room on the second floor. As there was no American flag to be found in the room, the members rose for the Pledge of Allegiance to a flag displayed on one member’s cell phone. Unlike the school committee in Amesbury, it’s nice to see all the members of a board rise to the Pledge of Allegiance, even if they had to make a last-minute scramble to locate a...
Pink House Legacy Lives On
PLUM ISLAND TURNPIKE – Sandy Tilton captured a photograph of the Pink House on its last day standing in the morning fog; flowers, a wreath and a pink heart attached to a utility pole next to this highway; the pickup trucks of the demolition workers barely visible as they made ready to tear down the 100-year-old beloved icon. That was March 11, a year ago, but for most of the Pink House supporters - the painters, photographers, writers and those who found solace just in its being there -- the house’s still...
