well. absolutely not Harris. The chairman's job is to make sure that all parties/sides on the committee are heard so a well informed decision can be made. Harris proved again last night at the Council meeting that he is not capable of that. he only promotes HIS way!

Well resident I was at the meeting tonight. It was disgraceful. Please watch it when it comes on Channel 18 TV. If you watched the Council Finance Committee meetings and watch this meeting, you will see the depths of the double talk and lies this person named Harris puts forth and is believed by many tax payers of this Town. I am afraid very afraid for the silent majority of this town.

Please, anyone but Harris. Croston would seem a much better arbiter of both sides.

Sorry I meant to say that Marilyn King received the Chairmanship in a 5-1 vote last night
