Unfortunately, folks, this will be a looong Blog post necessitated by the Sterling Planning Board’s Self-Dealing Developer Weasel, Carl Corrinne, and his Co-Weasel, Sterling Town Planner Stephen Wallace. As noted previously, CARL CORRINNE REALLY IS LOW ENOUGH TO BLOW THE BUFFALO ON A BUFFALO NICKEL— The first thing to note is that Sterling’s existing ProtectiveContinue reading “USING ORWELLIAN DOUBLE-SPEAK THE STERLING PLANNING BOARD, CHAIRED BY SELF-DEALING DEVELOPER WEASEL CARL CORRINNE, ASSISTED BY THE CO-WEASEL TOWN PLANNER, PROPOSE GUTTING STERLING’S STRICT ZONING SITE PLAN REQUIREMENTS AND TREATING STERLING’S ZONING BY-LAWS AS MERE “POLICY””

Many years ago Sterling Town Meeting voters voted to zone the southeasterly corner of Sterling in the area of Dana Hill Road and Redemption Rock Trail (Route 140) as “Performance Zone 1” because it is surrounded by Stillwater River/Wachusett Reservoir Watershed lands including the Stillwater River aquifer, various wetlands, and numerous tributary streams. Sterling votersContinue reading “FOR THE THIRD TIME IN 5 YEARS THE CRONY-ZONING PACKARDS, STERLING TOWN PLANNER, AND PLANNING BOARD WILL ATTEMPT TO RE-ZONE “PERFORMANCE ZONE 1” TO COMMERCIAL”

“Sterling Searching for parcel for MBTA Zoning”—that’s a new article (paywalled) in this week’s The Landmark newspaper, Holden. SO, the ABSOLUTELY GUTLESS WHIMPERING SIMP MORONS running ‘Sterling Town Government,’ such as it is, lack the intelligence and the cojones to join neighboring Town of Holden, and multiple other towns, in fighting back against Mass.Gen.Laws Ch.Continue reading “MORE PROOF THAT STERLING IS RUN BY ABSOLUTELY GUTLESS WHIMPERING SIMP MORONS.

Those paying attention know that the Sterling Planning Board and the ZBA are engaged in a pissing contest over which of those pro-developer hack groups should take the lead, and what their respective prerogatives are, when it comes to putting proposed zoning by-laws on Town Meeting Warrants. So, The Three Stooges constituting the Sterling SelectContinue reading “THE STERLING PLANNING BOARD AND THE ZBA ARE IN A PISSING CONTEST OVER PLANNING AND ZONING PREROGATIVES.

We know that the Sterling Conservation Commission has a VERY long history of letting local developers run wild at the expense of precious wetland/water resources. For example, in the early 1990s Simpson was allowed to bulldoze through standing swamp water and surrounding wetlands–prime migratory woodcock habitat and an upstream feeder source for the South BranchContinue reading “WTF???!!!

John Kilcoyne served two 3-year terms on the Sterling Select Board and, as a perennial boot-lick, voted to keep on as Chair of the Select Board one Maureen “Our Lady of Perpetual Bullshit” Cranson. You see, the egomaniacal, power-hungry, media hound, “Our Lady of Perpetual Bullshit,” intent on violating the Sterling Select Board’s unwritten ruleContinue reading “HOW CAN WE SAY GOODBYE TO JOHN KILCOYNE WHEN HE WON’T GO AWAY?”

As any Sterling property taxpayer possessing at least half a brain knows, the  Commonwealth of Massachusetts is a one-party DemocRAT HACK-O-RAMA, and Sterling Town Government, but for a few notable exceptions, is a microcosm Massachusetts DemocRAT HACK-O-RAMA. That fact was reaffirmed on 26 June 2024 when the fiscally out-of-control Wachusett Regional School District’s OUTRIGHT ASS-KISSINGContinue reading “NEWLY-ELECTED STERLING TOWN MODERATOR AND FORMER SELECT BOARD HACK, RICHARD LANE, TEAMS UP WITH THE CURRENT GUTLESS SELECT BOARD ASSCLOWNS TO SHAFT STERLING PROPERTY TAXPAYERS BY REJECTING GEORGE HANDY’S RE-APPOINTMENT TO THE STERLING FINANCE COMMITTEE”
