You sure are putting your daughter, the Historical
Society executive member, in a tough spot, aren't you?

How so?
Was this wonderful scheme already promoted on Alyson's show by Tim Jones as an idea for use of the hydro funds ??? was it all supposed to be secret ?
The last people to hear being the public about to be fleeced like sheep.
Who have themselves been asked to think about a worthwhile replacement for the town's hydro utility.
Was I not supposed to tell about the invitation I received from the President of the Historical Society to meet with the real estate operator, owner of one of the properties being promoted in the scheme, and the third person a second member of the Society's executive and the second property in private ownership of another member of the Historical Society.
If the whole thing was supposed to be secret until all the right names had been rallied in support of something I see as nothing but a money grab for personal gain, then my friend, I was the wrong person to rell.
Your daughter is on the exec of the historical society?
ReplyDeleteWill that preclude you from voting on anything related to them?
Perceived conflict of interest?
This is a much more interesting Council than the last one. You never know who is going to vote which way & there are fewer issues with a huge majority against one.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, the last time I heard a firm ' no ' was in relation to a stupid piece of playground equipment. A council in flux is not a pretty sight. Interesting but maybe not a keeper?
Are furtive liaisons, where pitching and wooing take place, the usual way political business is done municipally?
ReplyDeleteI thought that there might be a few on this present council who wouldn't operate that way. There go my idealistic hopes again!!
