I'm pleased that I've already had a response regarding the E911 map that has West Shore Road listed as Shore Road West - actually Shore RoadW.  Jeremy McMullen, the E911 Database Administrator (who actually lives in Danville and who I worked with when the E911 addresses were first introduced) contacted me today and as near as we can figure, the problem was likely a misunderstanding of the information being given.  The fact that the map I found had the wrong name on our road is not relevant in an emergency situation because there is an E911 database that call takers go by in order to route calls to the proper dispatcher, and that database has the correct information in it.  Why whoever took the call didn't recognize the location from the land line phone, Jeremy doesn't know, but he's looking into that.  Had that call taker seen that normally automatically displayed information, the location would have been immediate and there shouldn't have been any confusion.  

I also had a response from Karen Deasy, the Cabot E911 coordinator, and she has assured me both West Shore Road and Chatot Road are in the database they use to dispatch emergency crews.  So it seems everything is good, just perhaps there was some miscommunication.


I'm noticing tinges of color on the maple trees on our hill behind the house and along West Shore Road.  Once they begin to turn it usually happens quickly and with Fall Foliage Week coming right up on September 28th, it looks as if the colors could be just about full bloom.  It's always nice to have perfect color for that week.

Here is notification of a location change for an important meeting for people in the Town of Danville.  Click on the image to enlarge it for reading.

Also, don't forget the Chicken Pie Supper that same night at the North Danville Baptist Church.  Dining room seatings begin at 5 PM on a first come, first served basis, and no reservations.  If you wish to have take outs or have meals delivered, you must pre-order by Thursday, Sept. 24 by calling 227-3035 or 748-8519.  Adults $12; Children 12 and under $6.  This is always a great meal, so plan to either go or get your order in by Thursday.  Click on the image above left for menu and complete information.
