Tuesday is fast approaching, and that day, the voters of North Adams have a critical issue to decide in the special election on the funding for the Conte School Renovation Project.

We have already endorsed the plan to turn Conte into a K-7 elementary school for a variety of reasons - all and more of which are detailed in the myriad letters to the editor we have]]></description>

Though raised in Adams, there was a time in the not-too-distant past when I walked a piece of Boston's Boylston Street daily on my way to work in the Clarendon Building, just outside of Copley Square.

I crossed each day, filled with all the hope and determination of a man in his 20s, the same sidewalk the world saw streaked in the blood of innocent bystanders Monday]]></description>

The debate over the Conte School renovation has been roiling recently, and tonight's information session on the matter represents a great opportunity for voters to continue their education before the April 30 vote on financing the school building project.

The stakes have gotten higher in the lively debate revolving around the town's affordable housing shortage, The Spruces Mobile Home Park and the Lowry and Burbank conservation properties. 



The town has been awarded a $6.13 million Federal Emergency Management Agency grant to purchase and demolish the Irene-ravaged and flood-prone Spruces,]]></description>

With the borrowing order to transform the former Silvio O. Conte Middle School into an elementary school going to a vote on April 30, we&rsquo;ve been overjoyed with the flow of opinion that has made its way to our newsroom.



This is an important conversation that needs to be had in the days leading up to April 30, and we&rsquo;re happy to play]]></description>

We were pleased the City Council eventually passed the Special Tax Assessment Agreement for Crane's stationery division at its meeting last week. The tax break from the city, with its Economic Opportunity Area designation for the main plant in the Hardman Industrial Park, rests on the assurance of 74 permanent full-time jobs being created, with 20]]></description>

In Adams, tough luck has yet again struck the intrepid men and women of the Thunderbolt Ski Runners, as the group has been forced by snow conditions to call off their signature race down Mount Greylock's Thunderbolt Ski Trail for the second year running.
