Important Payment Information

 

If you are paying your real estate, sewer, or water bills through your bank using Bill Pay, DO NOT send the payment to the lockbox Boston address that is listed on your bill. This will significantly delay your payment because the lockbox will reject the payment and forward it to our office because no payment stub is included.

 

Instead, you will need to create a new vender account using 83 Greene Street, North Smithfield, RI 02896 address. Please allow at least 10 business days for the bank to process your payment. We do not accept EFT and they will need to issue a paper check and mail it to us.

New documents pertaining to the John F. Kennedy assassination are now public. For more than 60 years, the November 22nd, 1963 shooting in Downtown Dallas has been a discussion topic among internet conspiracy theorists and historians alike. The National Archives published roughly 80-thousand pages on its website Tuesday.        A federal judge is temporarily blocking the implementation of a transgender military ban. Last month, President Trump signed an executive order banning transgender people from serving in the military. Now, a judge is barring Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and other military officials from implementing that order.        NASA and Boeing aren't ready to give up on Starliner. NASA officials said yesterday they're working on issues that led to helium leaks in the capsule last year. The capsule was supposed to bring astronauts Suni [[ Sunny ]] Williams and Butch Wilmore home from the International Space Station. Instead, they ended up spending some nine months aboard the ISS before finally returning to Earth yesterday in a SpaceX capsule.        An outbreak of measles in West Texas is nearing 300 cases. The currently confirmed 279 cases is roughly the same number of cases that was seen nationally, all of last year. Statistics released by the Texas Department of Health and Human Services show the fastest growth continues to be in a rural community that has the lowest immunization rates in the state.        A member of the Tuskegee Airmen will be laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery today. Shelton "Ivan" Ware served as a weapons and vehicle maintenance technician with the Red Ball Express, a group of predominantly Black troops that helped supply Allied troops during World War Two. The Maryland resident was 101-years-old when he died in September.        A pair of schools are advancing to the First Round of the South Region in the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament. Alabama State and North Carolina secured victories in the First Four from Dayton. The Hornets claimed the 16th seed and will battle number-one overall Auburn in round one, while the Tar Heels snagged the 11 seed and clash against number-six Ole Miss. The First Four wraps up today with Xavier-Texas and Mount St. Mary's-American.
