These policies are very welcome. Thank you for all of the excellent job you have done all these years. It is about time folks take credit for what they have to say.

I did attend the historical tour and "reenactment". I am very active within the town and have held two (2) commissions here. I also have "filled out the form" which is the barrier for membership for entry to this stalwart club. Sadly, I can not express my real views in public because of the NIMBY Mob. If you were there you had to hear the undertones of hostility toward those who would ever date to think that property owners in this town have rights. You are correct though, I have not been to a meeting of the club because I generally don't charities without a charter and a board of directors or officers. I like accountability.
