The Mayor's audit of the school department was released today. Everyone should read the audit in it's original form. I am working on getting copies of previous audits available for the public to view. It will give voters a better idea of what past practices and concerns these past audits brought forward and how they differ. |

Here’s an Associated Press story The Recorder somehow missed---even though it mentions Greenfield, and quotes a Greenfield resident. This story ran in the International Herald in Paris, but not in downtown Greenfield. ---Sprawl-Busters News Service

It is great to see that we finally have some national unity on energy policy. Unfortunately, the unifying idea is so ridiculous, so unworthy of the people aspiring to lead our nation, it takes your breath away. Hillary Clinton has decided to line up with John McCain in pushing to suspend the federal excise tax on gasoline, 18.4 cents a gallon, for this summer’s travel season. This is not an energy policy. This is money laundering: we borrow money from China and ship it to Saudi Arabia and take a little cut for ourselves as it goes through our gas tanks. What a way to build our country. |

The letter below was sent to the Greenfield Town Council. According to the Town Council Secretary, the President has referred it to the Chairs Committee, and from there it will go to another committee, etc. This means that consideration by the Town Council of giving the voters of Greenfield a chance to elect an At Large Councilor in November, instead of someone chosen by 11 people for a term that runs until June, 2009, will not be taken up until the June Town Council meeting at the earliest. The General Court, which is likely to adjourn for the summer in early July, would have little opportunity to give Greenfield approval to put this seat on the November ballot already scheduled. After three weeks, there has been no reply to this letter, a copy of which was emailed to The Recorder, which dropped this subject quicker than you can say “cronyism.” |
