Local resident Nancy Dow has turned a lifelong love of animals into a new business serving area pet owners - The bow WOW! dog walking and boarding service, serving residents of Stoneham, Wakefield, Lynnfield and Melrose.

John Burbine was arraigned Wednesday morning and pleaded not guilty to numerous charges. He is due back in court on Jan. 15.
John Burbine pleaded not guilty to nearly 100 child sex abuse charges at his arraignment Wednesday morning in Middlesex Superior Court in Woburn. The Wakefield man was arrested earlier this year and charged with numerous abuse violations involving children primarily under the age of 3. Burbine spent much of the hearing looking straight ahead behind glass in a separate room, answering questions primarily with one-word responses. Unlike in the booking photo released by the District Attorney's office earlier in the month, his hair was almost completely white, with black eyebrows. He was accompanied by his attorney, Bill Barabino of Wakefield. The defense waived a dangerousness hearing in this case, which means that Burbine will have no bail …

If you would like a bus service in town, sign a petition to support the Reading Rocket Line.
Reading resident Linda Greenlaw has proposed a bus service to both the Reading Town Manager and Selectmen. Her goal is to have the bus provide transportation to residents in Stoneham, Reading, North Reading and Wakefield. After suffering with breast cancer last year, Greenlaw realized how difficult it was to get to her treatments without a car, she said. So proposing the idea for a bus line seemed like a "logical conclusion," she told Patch. "I understand from a deep level that transportation is needed," Greenlaw said. She is now in remission, but aims to get the Reading Rocket line off the ground to help fellow residents and those in need of transportation. The price of a taxi can get expensive, The Ride has increased their prices and …

Both sides reached a preliminary agreement during the Stoneham Board of Selectmen meeting Tuesday night.
After Bear Hill Golf Club cited erosion and drainage issues on their property as a result of work being done at the Wincrest development site, both parties reached a preliminary agreement to remedy the situation during the Stoneham Board of Selectmen's session Tuesday night. Since work started at the Wincrest site, Bear Hill reported an erosion issue near the walking bridge of the seventh hole at the golf course. Due to the drainage problems, a pond in the area has been muddied and silt issues have cropped up at the golf course. In the spring of 2011, Wincrest, a New Hampshire-based developer, received approval from the Stoneham Planning Board to construct a 47-lot subdivision at the former Our Lady of Nazareth Academy site. The nearly 20…
