Dedham Hangs Up T-Mobile; Thumbs Up for Dogs, Football

Keegan Pleased With Snowstorm Cleanup Efforts

Luckily, many in Dedham avoided the full wrath of last weekend's snowstorm, which caused outages to more than 1,000 in the town. While selectmen expressed extreme disappointment with how NStar responded, Town Administrator William Keegan praised the efforts of town workers.

The Board of Selectmen on Thursday endorsed a plan by the Parks and Recreation Commission to launch a new pilot dog park at the on Common Street. That plan needs the OK from town health officials, and would be a three-month pilot program to evaluate use.

Town zoning officials are looking to William Keegan to help mediate a compromise between Dedham residents and T-Mobile after the Zoning Board of Appeals denied the mobile company's application to place a cell tower on top of 297 High Street.

The football team played its first Friday night home game in school history this weekend in front of more than 1,000 fans. Before the game the DHS Alumni Association thanked people who donated toward lights at the new athletic complex.
