Push for Meditech

Several hundred people attended a meeting at Foxborough High School last week to voice complaints about National Grid’s lack of preparedness for a pair of storms in recent months that caused prolonged power outages. The utility sent Kathy Lyford, vice president of New England operations, to hear the complaints and respond to them. Lyford defended the company’s response to the storm, but also said she would explore specific questions and provide answers. - Michele Morgan Bolton
