DAXY HERALD ) ' A week after a Saratoga Springs bey was struck and killed by an underage driver, residents are saying the neighborhood's homeowners association is partly to . blame.''.. ' James Wylie, who lives in the neighborhood where the accident occurred, said underage drivers constantly drive cars, motorcycle and vehicles through the neighborhood. Because the streets are the private property of the HOA, officers have no power to stop the youth from driving before they have a . . license.- Ive seen children probably 6 years of age or so driving motorcycles," he said.

Two months after the original deadline, Broadweave announced early Saturday morn- -' ing that their $40 million purchase of the fiber-opti- c network is complete. The company says the deal comes with good news: new subscribers and revenue are above expectations. The company is not re-leasing specific figures. One of the last remaining questions in the deal was also answered. Financial backer Sorenson Capital is no longer part of the deal. It was Sorenson that provided a good deal of calm after the original announcement because of its massive funding mechanism and, perhaps more importantly, the name of Fraser Bullock. Bullock is tied closely to Mitt Rombusinessman and ney and is a Olympic organizer; Taking Sorenson's place is increased funding from another venture capital firm, EsNet, and existing Broadweave investors including BuDock who is a founding member of the company.'. We have great confidence in the underlying Broadweaves strategy and direction and in the company's future,,. said David Mom, general partner of EsNet.
