Thank goodness the Council appears to be planning legal action to block any attempt by the bozos at the BOE to move the school board election back to November.
Overall the council has been a disappointment ,carrying more water for the developers
and businesses with own agendas that are being served with a first priority at our public taxpayers expense . Seems when something routine gets completed its like a miracle has shown itself from the heavens .We expected better VC.Time to strap in for a real mess over next 2 to 3 years as they tear the roads and streets apart to raise their supporters bar –
on overdevelopment of Rental housing developments and raised parking structure projects .Just wait until you see the traffic and the impact to the town we know so well.
This did not have to happen..It was forced down Taxpapers throats .
“Time to strap in for a real mess over next 2 to 3 years” WRONG By the time this Council get done bonding all their pet projects we be paying for 30 years.
