Part 3 of the Dig's Somerville Files (ZBA Issues), Greater Somerville interviews the Authors

[samcoren.livejournal.com]

The Dig published Part 3 of The Somerville Files - the investigative series into Somerville development issues and politics. This one actually covers a Davis Square issue too, taking a deep dive into the Zoning Board of Appeals and the VFW.

Here are Part 1 and Part 2 DSLJ discussions.

Joe Lynch also interviewed the 3 authors of the series on SCATV's Greater Somerville, which in some ways, I find more fascinating than the articles themselves. Definitely worth watching - especially for the "so what/what's the big deal?" crowd: http://www.scatvsomerville.org/greater-somerville/

Yes, it was the city that pitted abutters against veterans. Not at all the nasty attitudes of the abutters themselves.
