Following two months without substantial rain and four-plus weeks of an outdoor burn ban due to increasingly dry ground conditions and a growing number of brush fires, First Selectman Jeff Capeci has rescinded the latter.
Spending two days reviewing both the Board of Education and the Town Capital Improvement Plans, the Board of Finance made a number of cuts and additions to year one of the Town side of the CIP.
The Board of Education finished the district development presentation series, and discussed finances and policies during its Tuesday, November 19 meeting.
By your own definition, wouldn't a boycott fall under the "protest" form of conflict resolution? Boycotts are peaceful protests that embody the freedom of expression codified in the First Amendment. Was Gandhi a bully when he instituted boycotts of British cloth and salt? The Republican victim mentality is getting exhausting.
I was there and silent in my position because of the mob mentality. The undertones and bullying group of the Facebook mob, even without their "leader," were sad and disappointing. I have silently voiced my support to individual members of the committee in the days following the meeting. I am just grateful that I didn't do it before the meeting, or the Facebook mob would have taken my photo and publicly shamed me for meeting out of caucus.
LOL! You are neither silent or the majority! 80-120 taxpaying residents attended every public hearing on this over the course of a year, in person, as well as hundreds of emails and letters to the boards, commissions and to the media.....with 95%+ of them in opposition. Facts matter.
