  2. All of these options are tough but I do not see any easy way out. Way back in 2000 the residents of Templeton were warned "about the way the town was using uncertain sources of income (State Lottery Receipts for example) to fund routinely reoccurring expenses (i.e. operating budgets"). Mr. Dan Keeney was the Advisory Board Chairman at the time. He also spoke about" the reduction in state funding resulting from the downturn in the economy" Needless to say, if anyone read his words of warning, they did not act on them, so that leaves us where we are today. Do not be fooled into thinking that the problems we have today are due to the current Board of Selectmen. These people are the clean up crew, cleaning up after decades of poor management, and yes, I did say decades. People will say, don't look back...I say bull shit, we need to learn from the mistakes of some people who did the best they could, and from some that had other ideas, so we do not go back down this trail again. A bitter pill to swallow but if we do not, things will not improve. My heart breaks that good people will be hurt by all of this, because it is not fair. Bev.
