SAUGUS – Early bird patrons can pick up their newspapers as usual at the Hamilton Street White Hen Pantry today, now that a weekend issue over deliveries has been resolved.White Hen General Manager John Rogalski was seeing red after a crackdown on early morning deliveries hampered his newspaper sales.By Monday, Rogalski was already feeling a financial pinch from not being able to offer his customers early morning news due to a town bylaw that prohibits deliveries before 7 a.m.”I’ll follow the law and I’ll play along, but why are they just enforcing this on me?” Rogalski asked.Police Chief Domenic DiMella said late Monday that Rogalski would be allowed to receive newspaper deliveries as usual until the Board of Selectmen could take up the issue at their next meeting.Rogalski said the problem started when he received a visit from a police officer Friday warning him that he could not accept deliveries prior to 7 a.m. or he’d face a $200 fine. He said he was told the enforcement would start Monday, but when newspaper deliveries showed up Sunday morning between 5 a.m. and 6 a.m. the police were there to turn the drivers away. He said the drivers were not allowed back on the premises until after 7 a.m.”I lost about 25 percent of my sales (on Sunday) papers,” he said.Selectman Michael Kelleher admitted it was he who reported the infraction, but it wasn’t a complaint on newspaper deliveries that caused him to pick up the phone.Kelleher said he received several calls from residents in the area regarding Dumpster pick-ups prior to 7 a.m.”If it hadn’t been for the Dumpsters no one would have called,” he said. “No one called because The Globe was being delivered.”Kelleher was also quick to say it was not necessarily a White Hen Pantry issue; it was an issue for everyone in the strip mall.He also defended his actions in alerting the town to the bylaw breach.”Any neighbor has the right to lodge a complaint and it’s my job as a selectman to react,” he said. “John was breaking a town bylaw.”The problem, as Rogalski sees it, is he is not the only one breaking the bylaw, but since he is the only one with a complaint lodged against him, he is the only one being forced to pay for it.Kelleher admitted there is no zoning or police officer assigned to strictly enforce the 7 a.m. delivery rule, but said Rogalski is not the only one to be cited.”I do know there have been others cited,” he said. “This is not the first time people have been cited or warned.”Rogalski said he has already changed the delivery times on most of his stock, but newspapers pose a different dilemma. He said people stop by early in the morning specifically to pick up the news and if they can’t get it from him they will get it elsewhere.”I’ll lose business,” he said. “Though they’re not really perishable, newspapers are my most perishable item.”Holden Avenue resident and pantry regular Bob Davis said he thought a guy as nice as Rogalski shouldn’t be targeted in such a way.”He’s not a conniving businessman,” he said. “He’s helped (World Series Park) out so much. He’s a great guy.”
