PUBLIC CEREMONY

BY WHAV STAFF | 56 MINS AGO Haverhill graduated 484 seniors Friday night in as large a public gathering as the city has allowed since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic last year. The stark change hit home as the Class of 2021 honored one of the school’s own, 19-year-old Logan Todd, who became Haverhill’s youngest victim of the disease when he died this past January. “A year ago, Logan was first in line in a wheel chair when I presented him with a graduation certificate of achievement,” recalled Mayor James J. Fiorentini. “Logan was a young man who, despite his disabilities, smiled very day and every day put a smile on the face of everyone who met him.” The mayor gave Todd’s brothers, Myles and Lucas Panneton, an honorary diploma for the young man. ATKINSON CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH OFFERS IN-PERSON SERVICES AT OUTDOOR SANCTUARY JUNE 6 AND 13 Atkinson Congregational Church is offering online options for parishioners during June and in-person services Sundays, June 6 and 13, 10 a.m., in the church’s outdoor sanctuary, weather permitting. Communion will be offered June 6, with in-person attendees receiving individual, pre-packaged, juice and bread. The June 13 service features two baptisms. When attending services in the church’s outdoor sanctuary, congregants are asked to bring their own lawn

chairs.

I-495 CONSTRUCTION UPDATE: STEEL DELIVERIES MEAN CLOSING LANES, RAMPS; NEW EXIT NUMBERS EMERGE Several steel beams appear near to completing a new crossing of the Merrimack River and the state plans lane and ramp closings this week to continue progress on the new Interstate 495 southbound bridge being constructed in Haverhill. Possibly confusing the state’s explanation of what’s closing is the ongoing renumbering of exits across the state to comply with federal mile marker requirements. There will be a single right lane closing on I-495 south, between new exit numbers 107 and 106, formerly exits 49 and 48 for River Street and Ward Hill, from Monday, June 7, through Friday, June 11, from 9 a.m.-2 p.m., to complete concrete barriers to protect existing overpass piers. CITY COUNCIL SIGNS OFF ON $106 MILLION HAVERHILL SCHOOL BUDGET; PLAN TO MEET GRADE-LEVEL GOALS The Haverhill City Council gave its approval last night to the school department’s spending plan for the upcoming school year. School Superintendent Margaret Marotta presented the $106 million budget at a special City Council meeting. It represents an increase of $8 million over the current year, but also includes a one-time payment of $7.6 million from the federal government.
