More Lies by Boss Williams

By now we all have had time to digest Boss Williams’ latest epistle taken with an extra dose of ant-acid for digestive purposes. Included in the letter was a picture of the famous sneer which required some stronger medicine. This time he did not tell us where the financing came from. We assume it came from his loyal New York City fans for which he is “Keeping Milan Rural”.
He is proud to report the progress of the present administration. After almost four years, they finally forced on the Milan community their Comprehensive Plan, Wetlands and Water Protection Laws. He did no mention the $100,000 of taxpayers’ money squandered on legal fees. He did not mention the lawsuit the town lost due to his mishandling of the Comprehensive Plan. He did not mention the faulty bookkeeping by him and Talmage, which has cost the town banking fees for overdrafts. He asks for your vote so, as he says, he can continue with the same sloppy administration.
He says the people of Milan should expect tax management, and good basic government from their elected representatives. The people of Milan did expect just that but it was not what the got from Talmage, Boss Williams and the rest of the Gang of Four. He says he has the experience and work ethics to do job well. Check with his co-workers at IBM about his ethics, some are still pull the knives out of their backs.
He talks about “Open Books”, you cannot get the right time at the town hall without filing a Freedom of Information Request. He claims he listens to the public; he does not hear from many of the public when he has his town board meetings at 9am Monday mornings when most of us are at work.
He did not mention that he had his property assessment lowered by $365, 500 on his county, town and school taxes. He did not mention that with the passing of the Wetlands Law, future Building Permits will require a Wetlands Review by their professional. Karen Scheller-MacDonald. (That is going to cost big bucks)
He did not mention the 17 laws he is planning to pass, each one to limit the freedom of the people of Milan. Here are just a few:1) Lighting Standards, 2)Driveway Standards, 3)More Fees 4)Fence Regulation, 5) More Highway business Regulation, 6) New but Unspecified Subdivision Regulations, and the list goes on.
He did not mention how he and Lord Kingman drove Milan’s only gas station out of town.Do you want to live in a Police State? Vote Boss Williams
