Williams & Co. does it again

Former Boss Williams and Squeaky May, the holdovers from the last regime of Team Talmage has done it again; another lawsuit on the town. Dyal Carting is suing the town of Milan for discrimination in awarding the Transfer Station contract to Royal Carting.
Milan in its almost 200 years of existence has rarely seen a lawsuit. In the two years of Williams, Talmage and Co. the town has been faced with six lawsuits including one generated by one of our town justices, Frank Christensen.
The town has spent close to $200,000 on legal fees and we don’t have the money to fix the bridges, we have to float a bond.
Thanks Williams and May; you are the ones that want to run the town. In the two years you had control of the Board you have sent the town to the verge of bankruptcy. You had no trouble dishing out money to the lawyers but little for the Highway Department, the people we depend on to maintain our roads.
Now you want to spend more money on lawyers, money the town does not have, you want to contest the lawsuits the town has lost twice.
