Bayview MA

[Dave Doherty]

Hi, Jeff - 

Mount Washington goes back to the days of Armstrong, and predates all the
current rules.

If you read the WRRS decision, the Commission found that Middleboro and
Middleborough Center are indistinguishable - different traditional names for
the same community.  That's a common finding in New England Towns, a
structure that seems unique to the region, as pointed out elsewhere in this
thread.

As for Bayview, I have not researched the app and its community.

Are you sure about that?

Bayview is not independent at all. I'd certainly never heard of it before
WPMW came along.

Middleborough Center, the COL of 1530 WVBF and 88.5 WRRS is not separate
from Middleborough.

Mount Washington is another example of this, of course.
