According to a flyer I got:

"There will be a neighborhood meeting regarding the proposed Subway sandwich shop at 860 Broadway, Somerville MA, sponsored by Ward 6 Alderman Rebekah Gewirtz. The owner shall be present to speak with neighbors and answer any questions.

WHEN: Wednesday, December 15, 2010
TIME: 5:00 P.M.
PLACE: 860 Broadway, Somerville, MA

For more information about the meeting please call Ward 6 Alderman Rebekah Gewirtz, (617) 718-0792, rebekah@rcn.com."

There's also this from Rebekah Gewirtz's newsletter:

"I testified against the shop coming at the Planning Board meeting on December 2nd because I am concerned that the block is going to become monopolized by chain stores. Locally owned, independent businesses add character, charm, and importantly, more local jobs than chains, which is why I have been such a strong proponent of them - and of organizations that support them like Somerville Local First. I haven't heard from many people about this planned Subway and I'm curious to get your feedback."

(This is the former location of the Spün frozen yogurt shop, near Powderhouse Circle.)

No, clearly they are doing it wrong. Instead of buying a franchise, they should be doing whatever Rebekah Gewirtz wants them to do!
