ReplyDeletethank you Bev and "others"! much needed and long overdue!!
ReplyDeleteAs we now have a change in guards that passed over this we still have a opportunity to have our new reps and Attorney General take a look and see what the reason for the people to not get the attention we should. A quick look at the documents provided on this and other web sites are proof of the wrongdoings. Will the meeting be stacked and this not supported ? Time will tell if Templeton gets a fair shake or reverts back to the swindles of yesteryears. Don't let Templeton get short changed and ignored over the past leaderships failures who were involved in these issues.
ReplyDeleteyou probably know by now this went down in smoke, unfortunately. a advisory board member said it's time to end what has divided the town for a long time. this was the best way to accomplish that. those that are "sure" that underhanded tactics were used will end the fight if it is investigated and NO problems are found. the people that feel all was all above board will do likewise if problems are found and the guilty pay. the division goes on!!!!!
