Today's riddle: What is the 1 way to guarantee winning a small fortune at the casino? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. 'Charming' 4-BR Home Hits The Market In Bedford (patch.com) — Bedford homebuyers can now tour a four-bedroom house at 8 Dana Road, newly listed for $949,000. The longtime owner's residence offers 2,093 square feet, a spacious living room with a picture window and wood-burning fireplace, and a quiet, tree-lined neighborhood setting.
2. Bedford Explained: Infrastructure (thebedfordcitizen.org) — Bedford's water, sewer, electricity, internet, and cell networks are all mapped out in this explainer, from MWRA water supplies to local cable and fiber options. You'll see how much water the town uses, why PFAS shut down the Shawsheen well, what Community Choice Aggregation means for your electric bill, and which providers actually serve your home today.
3. Bedford Fire Department Handles Multiple Alarm Issues (thebedfordcitizen.org) — Bedford firefighters handled 69 calls in one week, from medical emergencies in neighborhoods like Woodland, Springs, and South roads to repeated alarm issues at local schools, shops, and homes. The detailed log shows how crews responded to falls, Route 3 crashes, VA campus calls, and nuisance alarms, while also checking detectors and coordinating with neighboring towns' ambulances.
4. Asset managers misjudge what advisors prioritize: Cerulli (americanbanker.com) — A Bedford-based financial advisor, Kashif Ahmed of American Private Wealth, is featured in a national look at how advisors really want asset managers to support them. His stance—that firms should focus on solid investment access rather than pricey add-on services—offers Bedford investors insight into how local advisors think about fees, portfolios, and client support.
