 High Speed Chase Goes Through Cavendish: A Mount Holly woman, who was out on court-ordered pre-trial release conditions after she pleaded innocent last December to charges that she attempted to rob a convenience store, is accused of leading police on a drug-fueled chase Wednesday morning at speeds of up to 130 mph in a stolen car. The half-hour-long chase began at 8 a.m. in Weathersfield and wound around North Springfield a couple of times before it roared up through the Proctorsville Gulf on Route 103 into Cavendish, squeezed through a narrow construction zone and eventually ended in downtown Ludlow. Jennifer Graham, 37, was brought into court Thursday afternoon in White River Junction where she pleaded innocent to felony counts of attempting to elude police, grand larceny and operating a vehicle without the owner’s consent.  She also pleaded innocent to accompanying misdemeanor charges of speeding, drugged driving, providing a false name to police and violating conditions of pre-trial release. Currently, across all her cases in various counties, Graham is facing a maximum potential penalty of over 50 years in prison if she were to be convicted of all the charges now pending against her.

Lindberg Resigns from CFD Prudential Board: At the monthly meeting of the Cavendish Fire Department, Prudential Board member Stuart Lindbergh submitted his resignation. Daniel Tyrrell will take his place on the Prudential Board. CFD Minutes.

SB Member Defends Lindberg: At the Monday, May 13, Select Board meeting, member Sandra Russo made a statement in support of fellow board member Stuart Lindberg. He had come under “personal attack” by Amy Perry, a Proctorsville Fire Fighter,  at the last Select Board meeting April 8. She had called for his removal from the board, criticizing the objectivity of Lindberg, who is a volunteer at the Cavendish Fire Department, in the wake of increasing tension between the two departments as the subject of a fire district merger has come to the forefront in Cavendish town politics. Russo went through each complaint levied by Perry, having contacted other organizations where Perry accused Lindberg of inappropriate behavior. Neither group found a problem with his behavior.  Chief Audette of Pine Point Fire Training responded to Russo that he didn’t know where these comments came from and that Lindberg was “professional and courteous and not out of line.”  As for Perry’s concern of Lindberg having hidden personal agendas, Russo offered, “I don’t think anyone has to worry about Stu’s hidden personal agendas. There is nothing hidden about Stu. He tells you how he feels about everything.” Russo finished by saying, “As far as I’m concerned, this issue with Stu being on the Select Board is closed.”  Vermont Journal

GMUSD Board Oks Contract, Appoints New Members, Seeks Safety Upgrades in Cavendish: The board of directors of the Green Mountain Unified School District (GMUSD)  ratified its agreement with its support staff at a special meeting last Thursday, but not without questions about the timing of the work. Wayne Wheelock replaces Kahty Muther as the Baltimore representative to the board. Cavendish representative Doug McBride brought up the issue of school safety at CTES, pointing out that the signal to reduce speed when flashing hasn’t worked in weeks, the school crossing graphics and other lines painted on the street have all but disappeared. He moved to have the superintendent see to them and also on a “non-urgent” basis look into lights for the CTES parking lot and report to the board when the budgeted safety gates would be installed at the school. The motion passed. Chester Telegraph

Chester Telegraph Claims TRSU Board Violated State Open Meeting Law: In a complaint dated May 7 and sent to Two Rivers Supervisory Union Superintendent (TRSU) Meg Powden, board chair Paul Orzechowski, and copied to board members and Chris Winters, Vermont Deputy Secretary of State,  Cynthia Prairie, editor and publisher of The Chester Telegraph, is contending that the board of the SU improperly entered into an executive session even after it was warned that it was doing so illegally. This is not the first time The Telegraph has filed a complaint about the board violating Vermont’s Open Meeting Law. This law allows “public bodies” like select boards and school boards to meet in private but only under specific circumstances. At the May 2 TRSU board meeting, board members did not appear to understand why they were being called into an executive session, nor did the nature of the item to be discussed, “labor relations” met the criteria for exemption. When questioned about the executive session, Powden stated that they weren’t obligated to give any further information, then what appeared on the agenda. The Telegraph believes that it was not cited properly and Powden’s refusing to answer violated at least the spirit of the law that says that the board must “indicate the nature of the  business of the session.” The Telegraph’s written letter to the TRSU Superintendent and Board chair is available here, while the article appears at The Telegraph’s website.

TRSU May 2 Board Meeting: At the May 2, Two Rivers Supervisory Union (TRSU), the board approved a job description for Meg Powden, Superintendent, and looked at a Non-bargaining Personnel handbook draft, which would equalize days off for employees doing the same job across districts. For more information on this meeting, see the VT Journal.

Please do not leave outdated products, home-canned good, or perishable items.

4. CHS PLANT SALE CHANGED TO MAY 25: Since it was started, the Cavendish Historical Society’s (CHS) annual plant sale has been held the Saturday before the 4th of July. However, as a result of Town Garage fire (Feb. 2017), the Museum's water supply was adversely impacted.

As the expression goes, "Vermont has two seasons, winter and the 4th of July." Last year’s plant sale was on one of the hottest days in the summer and it was difficult protecting plants from the sun and keeping them hydrated. The decision was made to avoid that by switching the weekend to the Saturday of Memorial Day, which many think of as the planting weekend anyway.

To that end CHS’s annual plant sale will take place on May 25, Saturday, from 9-2 in front of the Museum (Route 131 in Cavendish). The plant list, with new information being added, is available at the CHS Blog. Some plants can be pre ordered including the tomato plants. 

If you have plants you would like to donate to the sale, please call 802-226-7807 or e-mail margocaulfield@icloud.com CHS can help with pots and soil.
