Another One Bites The Dust

I am totally amazed that Leesburg keeps hitting the front page of the Warsaw Times Union.

Here is the story:

Last Monday, May 17, council member Tom Moore fired, yes folks fired, Ed Riordan. As far as I know, Tom gave no reason for the firing, but I was not there. On the front page of the WTU last night, it tells of a special meeting that was held on Monday, May 24, terminating Ed's employment. Did Tom have the legal right to fire Ed on May 17 and why didn't that part of the story make the paper?

I am just amazed at the arrrogance and the politics that are being played out in Leesburg. I have been told that this is reminiscent of 1982. Back in '82, when Tom was on the council, he fired that street commisioner too. What is it with Tom firing street commissiners??

I feel that we need to get the word out and have as many people as possible come to the council meetings every month. The haughtiness of the new council members is sickening.

This is Leesburg.....not Jonestown or Mooresville.

Put a Muzzle on It

The board meeting was fairly long tonight. Discussion about the sewer system and the new storm drain, but the discussion was needed. Seems there was a change in the engineering plan and it will cost another $30,000 with the storm drain project. At the end of the day, it is a $1million grant and everything should work out fine for the storm drains.

The town will be getting a website, does that surprise anyone??? Think about one of our new board members, his services are free though. I agree with an email address for the clerk treasurer, there is so much communication from the state, but I am not sure how many people will actually go to the website. I guess time will tell. They are looking for a domain name, may I suggest we don't use Jonesville.com, just my opinion.

Another meeting with good attendance. Guess who showed up???? Mr. Ellis, I don't believe he knew who I was until one of the board members answered my question starting with "well Carolyn". I don't believe I have seen a head turn that fast since the Exorcist....

As for Mr. Ellis, I have never heard anyone talk so much and say so little. Actually at the meeting one of the Kammerer men finally said, put a muzzle on it.....

So, that is it for the second Monday of May.
