Housing Developer Disputing $154k Sewer Bill

Representatives of Campanelli Corporations cite 2008 agreement which Town Manager says is invalid.

Campanelli Corporation is disputing an outstanding bill of $154k the town says is owed to them. At the Board of Selectmen’s meeting two weeks ago, members and Town Manager Michael Yunits said the company has failed to pay the bill for sewer capacity.

Norton Police Support Bill to Ban Dangerous Bath Salts

A Bill to classify bath salts as a Class C substance under the state's Controlled Substances Act discussed in public hearing.

On Nov. 3, a Bill sponsored by Attleboro State Rep. George Ross was discussed during a public hearing before the Joint Committee on the Judiciary on Beacon Hill to classify bath salts as a Class C substance under the state's Controlled Substances Act. According to Zane Horowitz on WebMD, these are not the typical salts you buy at Bath and Body Works. Illegal street chemists market these salts, which are often called "Ivory Wave," "Purple Wave," Vanilla Sky," and "Bliss." Since the label says 'not for human consumption,' the salts, which can be found in small convenience stores, have avoided being specifically enumerated as illegal.
