According to the Secretary of State's web site in '08 Cheshire Democrats outnumbered Cheshire Republicans but in spite of this they couldn't carry this month's election. Basically they lost everything they could. If the lame duck GANG-OF-5 vote to move forward on turf, or anything else at this point it's just more of the same thing which placed them squarely in the DOA category on November 3rd.<br /><br />Could it be that even Cheshire registered Democrats voted against the special interests which their party saw fit to run in this election?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21123853.post-76023691675306454352009-11-15T12:02:24.212-05:002009-11-15T12:02:24.212-05:00I would imagine that the BOE would at least be abl...I would imagine that the BOE would at least be able to see and review the turf report BEFORE it goes to the town council. To the best of my knowledge, this has not happened in any BOE meeting since Bob Beher's 9/17/09 report.<br /><br />I do know, however, that Bob Behrer is going to try and get this approved before the new BOE and TC takes over. At Main Street cafe on election night, he told people there that the proposal was ready and they (democrats) were going to push it through before they left in December.<br /><br />With a 5-4 majority on the Town Council people should expect this "appropriation" to pass 5-4 Tuesday night. On Thursday night's (11/19) BOE Business Meeting, expect the acceptance of the "appropriation" to pass 5-2.<br /><br />By Friday of this week, the turf project will be underway. If the Town Council approved the $170K funding request for the bus contract last Tuesday night what makes anyone think that the majority won't raid the $8M town surplus account (again) to fund the turf?<br /><br />I guess this is the democrats' way of giving the town voters the middle finger in response to the election results.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21123853.post-23400308625238315482009-11-15T10:17:02.844-05:002009-11-15T10:17:02.844-05:00Honesty

The BD of ED should make the request of the TC; and then it should go out for referendum. Common decency does not exist with the dems on the council; they prefer backdoor dictatorship. They vote for their personnel wishes and not for what the majority of citizens prefer. They blatantly violated the laws when they encouraged some of the athletic organizations to vote for only democrats that supported the turf. This was in direct violation of IRS laws for 501c3 tax exempt organizations. When the investigations are complete they may lose their tax exemptions, and because of the Altieri's, & Ecke's disrespect for, people who donated in good faith to support these organization; they will not be able to take a tax deduction for their charitable contribution.
