Boss Williams ousts Van

Boss Williams to run for Supervisor
Well it happened; everyone saw it coming except Poor Old Van. Boss Williams showed his true form again, just as he did at IBM, he stabbed his friends in the back. Boss Williams a/k/a Defacto Supervisor set Van up by approving Van’s lousy bookkeeping; he along with Squeaky May, has forced Van out of office.
Some weeks ago Boss Williams sent out his letter which was his signal that he had bigger plans for himself. He was just sharpening the knife for Van. Boss Williams and Lord Kingman see themselves as the future rulers of Milan.
As Van rides off into the sunset, Milan residents should look back as see the damage this pair has done to the town. Look at the amount of our money they have squandered on legal fees in their reckless pursuit of destroying the town. Should Boss Williams be elected Supervisor it is unknown the amount of damage he and Lord Kingman plan for our future.

More Williams' Lies

By now we all have had time to digest Mr.Williams epistle to the common folk whom he affectionately refers to as “Neighbors”. Mr. Williams places his address as the Milan Town Hall which makes us believe he lives there. Considering he paid for this communication out of his own pocket, as he tells us, money he extracted from the citizens of Milan; maybe that qualifies him as “Neighbor”.

Mr. Williams talks about the Comprehensive Plan, Wetlands and the Rural Space Overlay. He fails to say that he and his bunch have cost the town almost $100.000 for something that the New York Supreme Court kicked out as illegal. He proudly states the Milan is not afraid of lawsuits. Why should the Gang of Four fear law suits, they are not paying the piper, it’s the people of Milan that are paying for their screw-ups

He says “The Town has been managed in a fiscally responsible manner.” The truthful thing about the statement is, it is in the past tense. When we see the goof-ups by Financial Wizard Talmage in his financial responsibility, we understand why Williams is in the past tense. In 2006 alone, Talmage was responsible for over drafts totaling $46,215.75. For these over-drafts, the town was charged penalties and fees. Mr. Williams being a member of the Milan Town Board approved these over-drafts. Williams wants us to believe that the town is in competent hands. Is this the way a competent money manager operates? Williams, acting as defacto supervisor along with his puppet supervisor Talmage has been responsible for financial errors every month since they came into office. In his three years in office, Talmage has overspent his budget lines; is this who you want to continue managing your town?

He asks us to “Speak out for a more civil Milan”. That is what we are trying to do as Milan United. We don’t want to live in a police state with our rights taken away which Williams, Lord Kingman and the rest of the Bunch are trying to do. This bunch has tried to encroach on every part of our lives. It is time to get rid of them and restore civility to the town.
