The Select Board on Monday approved an intermunicipal agreement to transfer authority over the street lights from the Williamstown Fire District to Town Hall.

Brian O’Grady was born in the Pennsylvania town of Warminster Township and played his prep ball at Archbishop Wood Catholic High School. For his college ball, he attended Rutgers University in nearby New York.
After his career as a Scarlet Knight came to a close, O’Grady was drafted in the eighth round of the 2014 MLB Draft by the Cincinnati Reds where he spent the first seasons of his professional career.
His first year in minors was spent with the Billings Mustangs of the Pioneer League. That year he hit .257/.354/.449 with six home runs and 42 RBIs.

He played the outfield for the majority of the season, more than doubling his career innings played total on the grass, and backed Cronenworth up at second while putting together the best batting line of his career. In a shortened season with heightened injury problems, his flexibility was exactly what the team needed.
On Friday, the Padres and Profar agreed to reunite, with San Diego signing him to a three-year, $21 million deal that includes opt outs after each of the first two seasons. But while Profar is headed back to southern California, what role he’ll play there remains undecided.
