My regular monthly selectman office hours are at The Center on the first Friday of every month from 9:00 to 10:00 AM (this Friday).
Residents are welcome to stop by to talk in person about any town matters. Residents can also have coffee and see the Council on Aging in action (a vibrant organization with lots going on).
I can be reached via my cell phone at 508-359-9190 or my blog about Medfield matters, where any schedule changes will be posted.

I am supporting Tom Melville because our towns need a state representative who understands local challenges, treats public service as a responsibility, and will work full-time for us. Tom believes in listening to residents, being transparent about decisions, and holding government accountable. He will bring the focus and determination our communities deserve.

Congressman Jake Auchincloss was at the Blake Middle School Tuesday doing an impressive job teaching and fielding questions from an auditorium full of kids, and the kids questions were notable. Jake commented afterwards that their questions were better than he gets from high schoolers. Asked about his regrets, Jake suggested to focus on challenges not pursued.
I updated Jake on the town progress to use his Federal earmark monies he secured to upgrade the sidewalks on Pleasant Street, Federal monies he cautioned before the administration might seek to claw back.

Sustainable Medfield and Charles River Repair Coalition are coordinating a Repair Café at Mill Forge Makerspace on Sunday, October 18, 2-5 pm. Gather an item that you would like repaired, and join in. Typical repairs include stitching, woolens, jewelry, lamps, knick-knacks, small appliances, small furniture, bicycles…. Fixers donate time, tools, and expertise to repair items brought in. If they cannot repair an item, they generally can advise about repair or how to get a missing piece. No pre-registration necessary.
The location at 61 Endicott St, Bldg 4, Norwood, is itself interesting, as it is in a 19th-century mill complex which now houses various antique, clothing, leather work, craft, and artist outlets.

Medfield Select Board member
I started this blog to share the interesting and useful information that I saw while doing my job as a Medfield select board member. I thought that my fellow Medfield residents would also find that information interesting and useful as well. This blog is my effort to assist in creating a system to push the information out from the Town House to residents. Let me know if you have any thoughts on how it can be done better.
For information on my other job as an attorney (personal injury, civil litigation, estate planning and administration, and real estate), please feel free to contact me at 617-969-1500 or Osler.Peterson@OslerPeterson.com.
