Reader: Valley expert will be invited back to answer to his contradictions an “undue BURDEN” on Valley. What????
When Valley’s experts testified last Spring, no one informed the public that the sessions were “quasi judicial”, and no one was given written information, power points or brochures ahead of time. How could any of us have “objected” or “cross-examined” these experts? And, of course, we could not afford to have legal representation during all of those meetings; we are living beyond our means as it is.
Now when there is the possibility that a Valley expert will be invited back to answer to his contradictions, we are told that this would cause an “undue BURDEN” on Valley. What???? What about the burden on us?
Often by going door to door, we have scraped up the $ to hire a lawyer and and expert for their precious time—time that is wasted by Drill. Many of us have children in college, and face a lousy return on the houses in which we invested–because of Valley. Many of us are caring for aging, ailing parents. We have left our children to the face their homework woes alone countless times to attend PB meetings (these started when my daughter was 8. She is now learning to drive, but still doesn’t understand when I can’t be there for her).
What about the burden on us? What about the burden we will be asked to bear if this ludicrous expansion happens????
Unfortunately, the only hope is that the PB sees the “burden” on this town going forward. Valley, and it’s very few supporters, could care less. They have been given an opportunity to ruin the good thing we have here and they are certainly taking advantage(again) of it.
