1. Bev. The information you bring us is worth more than we will ever know. The facts are there and we catch the commissioners asleep time and time again. Funny reaction from the chairman Dana when you mentioned the heat pumps, your installer should have told you,i think is what he managed to answer you with.
   That was a clasic obtuse answer, the meetings are full of them and that fit in with the others well. They asked Driscoll did you know about these things,"duh", for the customers? But the real question about the low income and fixed income seniors and disabled were not even followed up on not mentioned after 3 meetings and said to us they would check, nothing!
   your Commission had not a word brought to the meeting about it, Reclosers were again 10-15 minutes of wasted time. Seems were doing ok without them,Lets try to run the light and water without commissioners too.Try to get them to do anything is like makeing a fire with 2 sticks and no string or flint. My point is with the petition is to get something to change so Templeton has a municipal light dept that works for the ratepayers again, I'm sure they don't now and they have proved it to us time and time again. Wil didn't bring up the elderly rate for the simple fact that they show they don't care to bother with helping the seniors or low income,When 1st asked about the lower rate

   .We were told the other rate payers would have to pay for it. Higher pilot money would come from the rate payers. Raise the rates to pay for the higher pilot payment. I have yet to hear at a l+w meeting the extra money they get will go back to the rate payers. 3000k 1 year worth of Renewable energy credits they keep it, returned seabrook maintenance money they keep it. Loans for who knows what they get it. Long term debt.out of control and wind turbine cost unknown.The reasons to end the as is commission are growing bev and we will find more and more things as we look into the dark side of the LIGHT department's past and future, deals that won't work for the town now or in the future. The rumor that we are out to fire the help is smoke up the ass of the voters and when i hear that it makes me think of Danas answer to the question's about the income level of 60k to qualify for assistance, "STUPID" and out of touch. He trying to circle the wagons and take cover,send the girls and children out as shields to cover our asses,spread rumors,do what you can to hold our position's the raises are comming soon again. They can't come to the table with a running web site after 6 months and a audit result with 15% or less in 2 years? give or take 6 months? All facts they will need to answer to at STM. We will have a list that they won't even know about. Like the rebate offers we blindsided them with, we were told before that only the big co like mass electric and ngrid can offer them, The whole time they were available to the rate payers, poor job commissioners, guess the general didn't tell you either did he?Funny thing the girls in the office knew about the appliance rebate program. Not on the town web page for light dept,to help out the rate payers save money, nothing about saving anything for the ratepayers until the 1.00 less for being a abused customer, hold up that dollar and shield us from big bad C4T. The citizens do the voteing and will get their chance on March 6. Thanks for the lack of your awareness Dana,Your full of it and it shows. Templeton Light is ours and not yours.
   My opinion and proud of it!
   Drive carefully your view is limited!
   Please if you see highway workers in the roads,Yield or stop,give us a break were there for you, Thank you!
