With the vote earlier this week by the Board of Selectmen to deny a liquor license for Hannaford, today we ask whether Chelmsford should be required to have a cap on how many liquor licenses they can give, and whether or not that played a significant role
Earlier this week, the Board of Selectmen unanimously opposed granting a limited liquor license to Hannaford first discussed a week earlier.

Several local residents spoke out against the proposal at the Selectmen's meeting on Monday. What are your thoughts?
On Monday night, the Board of Selectmen heard arguments over the possibility of Hannaford selling beer and wine at its store on Drum Hill.

As "Coach" explained the health hazards of fatty snacks, "Johnny Junkfood" bolted onto the stage. Escaping Coach's grasp with a series of acrobatic moves, Johnny grabbed whole boxes of the stuff before collapsing on the floor with a sugar high. "Just look at all the stuff he's been eating!" an astonished Coach told the cheering audience of South Row Elementary School third and fourth-graders. "Johnny Junkfood" was really actor John Long, and "Coach" was Glen Wall. Both were performing "FoodPlay," an interactive theater show promoting the importance of healthy eating and other habits to school audiences nationwide. Its South Row performance was done in partnership with Hannaford Supermarkets as part of a sponsored tour. FoodPlay's story was…
