Dori Dea

Briefings: A New Dean for the Western Mass State House Delegation…?

Several incumbents face challenges in the primary. Democrats from North Adams to Springfield will have to fight to secure their party’s nomination. The representative for the 5th Hampden District has now joined the list. Holyoke Rep Patricia Duffy will face political consultant and Democratic State Committee member Dori Dean in the primary.

Springfield

Take My Council, Please: Be Kind, Please Rewind (That Vote)…

As announced, the Springfield City Council held a special meeting Friday to purge its “tainted” vote to discontinue a stretch of Wallace Street. Essentially a street only on paper, the body had approved the discontinuance on February 2. That would return the land to abutting property owners. One of those owners was JETS Property Development, LLC. City Council President Tracye Whitfield owns part of JETS.
