April 15th, 2011

Hi people-
Did you like my latest blog April 22, 2011, it sure says it like it is, right? I have been preparing for the election May 2nd 2011, helping pass the word on, who in my opinion should be put in as selectman. A lot of people I talked to say they don’t even care who gets in as selectman, and my reply was to them “Don’t cry when you or your grandchildren can’t afford to live in Templeton because of the way the town is run by the I want – I want group with the big wallets “.  Not even caring what impact those decisions have on our lives and well being and on our children and grandchildren.

Town Meeting

Town elections, it gets even better, what about Town Meeting last night.  Mr Moderator you have a gavel, why not try using it....Town Accountant...hello...the town tax rate is not $14.?? it is $12.55.  Town Counsel...really, do you have to look up in "your book" what "to table" a town meeting article means?  Kudos to the town of Templeton residents for the turnout at last nights meeting, you are not only getting involved and making your own decisions you get to see the Town live in action.

What happened at the Election

Would someone please explain to me what happened at the Town Elections last Monday. How could everyone leave Narragansett thinking that Julie Farrell and Jeff Bennett had won the two openings for Selectmen. Tuesday morning the Town Clerk swears in Jeff Bennett as a selectmen, then an hour later she swears in Gerald Skelton saying he won. We know that Julie got the top spot, but why all the confusion on the second place finisher? Even The Gardner News had Jeff as the second spot winner.
