Peter Farrell's letter to the Worcester Telegram about Fluoride in Public Water Supply
Templeton Residents will have the opportunity to vote on a citizen’s petition concerning ending the practice of Fluoridating the public water supply at the Town of Templeton Annual Town Meeting to be held starting May 10 2011. As the person responsible for submitting the Citizen’s Petition for the removal of Fluoride from our water supply I would like to bring to the publics attention a few salient facts as discussed in the book “The Case Against Fluoride” by the authors, Connett, Beck and Micklem.
Fluoridation is a very bad medical practice. Once fluoride has been added to the public water supply, there can be no control over the dose people receive or who receives it.
Fluoridation defies medical ethics. When communities fluoridate their water, they are doing to a whole community what an individual doctor is not allowed to do to anyone: prescribe medication without the individual’s consent.

My Battle falling on deaf ears of Town Officials
The Conservation Agent was hired in February 2008 at a Grade 6, Step 3. In a Letter dated March 2008, the Personnel Administrator stated the agent would be paid at Grade 6, Step 3 $15.85 per hour with an extra $4.15 per hour from the wetland protection fund. (How is this fair? This is double dipping.) The MGL 40 8C that the Conservation Chairman is always quoting does not give authority to just throw extra money in the agent’s pay. As a matter of fact the Massachusetts Conservation Commissioners Assoc. handbook specifically states that Conservation Commission agents and staff must follow any Towns personnel policies and by-laws. It also states under H.B. 4.3.2 a Town Meeting vote is required to spend any money from the Wetland Protection Fund. So the agent was paid a total of $20.00 per hour from the time he was hired in Feb. 2008 to June 30, 2008. It never went before Town Meeting. Wasn’t this also a violation of the Personnel Policy which was accepted by the voters? How is this fair to other employees? No other department is allowed to do this not even the Sewer Department which has an enterprise fund. As a matter of fact a few years ago, the then Chairman of the Board of Selectmen took pay away from the Sewer Commissions secretary even after their budget was voted at Town Meeting because it was in violation of the Personnel Policy he claimed. The Agent was hired at a Grade 6, Step 3, $15.85 per hour, yet he was always paid more.

new school
so they want $950,000.00 - $825,000.00 to buy land on Otter River Rd for the new elementary school, combined 4 parcels two owners,. Not in your live time worth $825,000.00. Then they want $125,000.00 to having an engineer check it out. Now they say they can't use the land John and Doris Brooks had agreed to so generously to donate because they claim it is wetlands. Well I went on the DEP website and looked at the GIS maps http://maps.massgis.state.ma.us/WETLANDS12K/viewer.htm for anyone who doesn't know what parcels it is the Chaves house (formally Tolman's) and the woodlot next to it owned by the Inmans for the real old timers like myself it use to be Kalel's junkyard and turkey farm. Well the MassGIS shows "wooded swamp mixed trees and wooded swamp deciduous " it also show streams going through the property. now if you move the map to the Brooks' property it doesn't seem to show any of this, mmmm ???
Is the Mass/DEP wrong????
