Dairy Queen update

TBE staff have learned from a confidential informant that the lot originally planned for a new Dairy Queen will instead be used as a corn field this year.

Tuesday Trivia

At today’s Finance Board meeting, what will the City of Bristol Tax Collector report to the board the amount of uncollectable tax income the city will have for the past year due to Bankruptcies, Deaths, Out of Businesses, or Whereabouts Unknowns?

That’s it for today. Talk to you again on Thursday. Until then, be nice to everyone you meet.

All TBE readers, supporters and donors                

The Bristol Edition will be limiting the number of stories non-members and free readers may access each week. This decision is based on our financial projections and, most certainly, to remind people that TBE is serious about providing accurate, timely and thorough reporting for Bristol. To do this we have devised a financial support structure that makes unlimited access extremely affordable, beginning with a $6 monthly donation.                

  • Non-members will be able to access four (4) articles per week.                
  • Free readers and people who have subscribed by email will be able to access four (4) articles per week.                
  • Donors and financial supporters will have unlimited access as long as they log in.                

Note: Donors may have to contact TBE if they find they are being limited, since we will need to set up a membership account for you. Email editor@bristoledition.org for instructions. Sorry for any inconvenience. People with financial difficulties may write editor@bristoledition.org to be considered for free access.
