Berkshire School Bus Boycott Ends Amid Talk of Safety Review
In Pittsfield Berkshire, most parents sent children to West Side Community School Friday, ending the probusing boycott that began weeks earlier. A compromise by Councilman Brindle and Mayor Dobelle with the School Committee creates a joint review by the transportation safety committee and West Side parents to address bus safety claims. Absenteeism dropped from about half on opening day to around a 7 28 percent decline by late last week as turnout improved. In North Adams, Hunter Outdoor Products laid off up to 100 workers on Wednesday, a temporary move due to delays and illness, with about 350 still on the job. Congressman Conte filed a joint resolution to amend the Constitution limiting presidential pardons, requiring confirmation by House and Senate within 90 days and potential override by a two-thirds vote.
