[Summit] Tire slashing

[Jonathan Howard]

I only heard indirectly, but apparently there was a rash of tire slashing 
in this area last night. As many as 100 homes may have had their cars 
vandalized. Police said that similar incidents have occurred recently in 
Barrington and East Providence. If you saw anyone or anything last night 
that might be connected to this, please call Lt. David Schiavulli our local 
police commander: 243-6980.

I'll add an update on the library sign situation. At the last Zoning Board 
of Review meeting, the Library presented a slightly scaled down design for 
the sign honoring the Granoff family. From the Board's questions and 
comments, I thought they would simply deny, but instead they agreed to 
continue the matter again. The issue was not on the agenda for the upcoming 
meeting of the ZBR and we have not heard from the PPL. Thanks to SNA 
members Judith Shrier, Elianna Bresler, Eric Armey and Anisa Raouf as well 
as the entire Board of the Friends of Rochambeau for taking time to stand 
up for the neighborhood in this matter.

Oh, and a Happy New Year!
