So a town employee says I am uninformed because they claim the information is wrong. Well, that is the information taken from the "budget book" handed out at a selectmen meeting and used during the budget process. Since the selectmen are the ones who eventually approve the health insurance costs that taxpayers pay for, that wold seem to indicate the selectmen are uninformed and that the information they put forward is wrong.

I believe the important numbers are the 75/25 split for health insurance costs and the fact that yearly increases are reaching double digit numbers. If health insurance increases by 13% and Town revenue from property taxes can only increase by 2 1/2% without a town approved override, I do not think you have to be a math genius to figure out that scenario cannot continue for long without something changing. Perhaps the split should change with the increase in costs. A 13% increase in insurance costs is met with a 13% change in the split, until you get to the 50/50 split. I believe the law is that the town has to pay at least 50% of the costs.

How qualified does one have to be to be hired for Templeton highway? Have a license/CDL class B, not on drugs, able to show up on time.

What happened to all the bluster about big changes coming to Advisory Committee/ Resignations, your outta here, etc, etc. Appears that is all it was, bluster and bull shit! Maybe that is why the selectmen are having a retreat at a fire station!

The yearly costs for health insurance are not on the Town budget versus actual document. Why not? There is no accounting of OPEB funds on the budget versus actual documents. Why not? Those questions have been asked and no answers provided to date, a week so far without answers, so why would any other questions be asked concerning other things when those have not been answered.

  1. Sounds like the people to ask are the group that does our audits. If they cannot find the information, then we do have a problem. If we have money missing here and there, maybe the Inspector Generals office should be called ! Are the books a mess to cover up something much sinister ? Once again, where did Markel's "found money" come from ? I want a answer ??

  3. jefie only needs to ask questions to get answers. That's how it usually get done.
    The highway/sewer negotiated a contract like the unions do year after year.
    Jefie has a problem with the leadership that offered the contract we agreed to and can only piss and moan over it.
    As the people in town read his gibberish they must think he is a real fool to have done the same in the past and now whine like a little baby about a math issue he has.
    Until this town gets the school costs under control and has a limit of increase to the school budget the town can absorb only what the school needs are.

    Multi over rides have been needed after to low of a tax rate and with no want for it higher taxes will be limited to bare minimum.
    Yes Jefie has a problem with the math as it is part of a issue with his lack of common sense and name calling like others on the A.C. seem to have.
    So you want answers go to the BOS meetings and ask them on camera.
    If jefie looks it up the 50/50 law applies to private business and corporations not covered by unions and the like.
    If we went by what lil jefie thinks things should be we would be in a worse condition in a hurry.
    So think for yourselves and be better off for it.
    We know what leadership he provided in the past,our future would be no different.
    Ask the Skeltons about Lil jefie,they know him well. 80k worth.

      LMAO, this 4:40 post wins the best post award.

      Of course little Davey boy wants higher taxes, so the whole town can chip in for his benefits so less out of his pocket. He is only looking out for himself, beware or him.

  11. fool don't you read the papers it's a DPW now.
    Can't you understand this stuff.
    Part fool and part Anonos.
    Get something right for a change and people won't think your so full of nothing.
    Jefie has the floor here and you need to respect that or he will shut the comments off again. And and will go tell the mirror about the bad bad things on his shit pile of a blog just here for a sounding block for the AC he represents to bash a date or a misspelling by anyone he can find that does.
    So shut it down jefie shut it down. It won't get any better just quit.
    It's useless the way you have it setup for information you feel is important,like you would have any clue about it anyway.
    I've tried to teach you what direction to find a better way Templeton could get better but you can't learn so we get what we have here.
    I big pile of nothing from ,you guessed it ,no one.
    LMAO

  14. Anon he sure seems like he's having issues. It's a shame to see such behavior. It just shows how upset he is over the death of his blog. He's just attacking anyone who posts here. The childishness he shows regarding the Anons shows how desperate he is to attack personalities over the points written about on the blog.
    Dave is showing all the social aptitude of an impotent bully. Best to just avoid his pointless comments all together. It's pretty clear he doesn't have a clue as to how things actually run or he wouldn't say half the pointless things he does.

    Mix 6 truck drivers, one psycho union thug, a batch of equipment and call it a Highway Dept. Add in a few lawn mowers, a boss and a foreman of lawnmowers. Voila! You now have a DPW. It's not whala, Dave.

  16. It's a bobi again and again.
    I would think there would be a sentence for the big AC meeting last night.
    I think your stepping on lil jefie toes as he is the commander in blig you should be allowing to set rules here.
    Anonos should disregard the post by Bob M and waite for the official words like before when the Blig was shut down.
    bobi i think your repeating like lil jefie does again and again.
    obviously the ANONOS 230 has been in a sleep mode and has a hard time with the math.
    Wake up check your facts and report back with some true data for people to believe not this gibberish shit false info.
    Anonos have no CREDIBILITY or a backbone to find any with.
    LMAO
    2 funny
    SERIOUSLY
    Bobi just has a problem with the truth like when the ANONS put out facts of his past
    Now he sticks up for the ANONOS who let the info out about his record.
    I guess he switches day to day depending on his target.
    Could i be right bobi?

    The persons on the IAC have got no clue as to what it is costing the town. Some of them have stated publicly a few years ago they did not want any changes to medical ins. no matter what it cost the towm asks HY
    Spelling for town is done like this you ZERO "TOWN" i guess towm is where you went to the school for Zeros training.

    We, as in 98% of townspeople who are sick of your useless incoerant gibberish rants all for your own gratification, because nobody knows what the hell your trying to say.
    Another poor spelling error from the zero again and again over and over. It's "incoherent" like you are most of the times here.
    It could be that loss of brain tissue that could be your problem that would explain a lot about your abilities and lopsidedness.
    But all in all you keep up the hard work and some day that sign could come down.
    We're scheduled to take and replace some soon. Junior was against them from the start.
