PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The West Side Legends is embarking on a multiphase initiative to "Buy Back our Neighborhood" by redeveloping the neighborhood.

On Saturday, the nonprofit group will celebrate its first development, 28-30 Daniels Ave., with an open house from 1 to 4 p.m.

The event will explain how the development was renovated from a rundown duplex into two modern condominiums.

Each condominium contains two bedrooms, one bathroom, and storage space. There is also room for future expansion on the property.

The initial investors, builders, and prospective owners all have West Side interests.

Partnering organizations include Greylock Federal Credit Union, The Crane Foundation, Central Berkshire Habitat for Humanity, Guardian Life, Gray to Green (Berkshire Regional Planning Commission), Berkshire Taconic, Aaron’s, RSI Signs, Berkshire Environment Action Team (BEAT), and Milltown Capital.

Dalton Capital Planning Committee Members Selected

DALTON, Mass. — The members of the town's Capital Planning Committee have been selected.

In December, the Attorney General's Office approved the Capital Planning Committee bylaw that was approved by voters at the annual town meeting last May, Town Manager Eric Anderson said last week.

The bylaw creates the committee, outlines membership, appointment and term, and highlights the committee's duties, which is to prepare a Capital Improvement Plan financing plan with a five-year forecast of revenues and expenses.

The members of the committee are Karen Schmidt and Tom Irwin, representatives of the Finance Committee, and Dennis Croughwell, a representative of the Planning Board. Anderson accepted the Finance and Planning Board's selections for the committee.

Also serving on the committee is Town Planner Janko Tomasic, and Lee Nunez, principal assessor.

Temporarily serving until the town hires a new town accountant and finance director will be Sandra Albano, who retired in October but has stayed on in the role until a replacement can be found.

Anderson appointed the at-large committee members as Daniel Esko, to ensure a Select Board member is involved, and the town's former town manager Kenneth Walto, because of his 19-year experience in the town manager position.
