Subject: resident sees lack of trust

 

All,

After watching last evening selectmen meeting this A.M., I am a little concerned. From the Assessors Vision software, now to infield groomer. It seems if one attends Town Meeting, BOS meetings, capital planning meetings or budgetary meetings, it is hard to trust what one hears or is told. Presenting one thing and then doing another does not bode well for this voter anyways. Have a plan, present a plan and follow the plan. Most importantly, budget the plan rather than rely on handouts from another town department.

On another note, I believe now is the time to begin planning, as in create one, for future snow & ice. Do not wait until next year or what ever point in time it happens, to suddenly have to buy screened sand, it is not cheap! You (highway dept.) does not have the trucks to haul it efficiently. A look at the complete costs of using sand has to be part of the plan, perhaps a task for capital or advisory committee, as it involves the spending of taxpayer money.

regards;

Jeff Bennett
