The most powerful politician in town does things his way and has for many years. When the town voted to keep their local elementary schools Mr. Columbus was there to allow these schools to fall into disrepair so that our schools could be centralized, it didn't matter what the voters thought. When it was illegal to use municiple funds for a ballot election Mr. Columbus was able to get Senator Brewer on board to create Special Legislation Ch93 Acts of 2000 passed. When Erving Paper Mills needed to get out of a thirty million dollar contract obligation Mr. Columbus was their to run interference for Erving by keeping our State officials Gobi and Brewer from helping the Sewer Commissioners. These are just my opinion but Mr. Columbus has done much harm to his town. If a man is only as good as his word then in my opinion Mr. Columbus needs to be watched very carefully as the good he has done his town is far outweighed by the bad.
