Williams and May Responds

In response to the quarterly report by Supervisor Barrett and Councilpersons Byrne and Egan on Milan’s financial position; the Democratic opposition has attempted to defuse the facts of the report in a June 9th letter to the public. The letter portrayed the genius of the Milan Democratic chairman, Cecil Bill Demay, the man behind the camera. It had all the Bill May qualities of not getting anything right and denying the facts in an attempt to cover the financial blunders of the previous administration under the leadership of Ross Williams supported by Squeaky May. These two still sit on the board and are doing everything possible to perpetuate their financial blunders of last year.
Last year Williams and May spent Milan’s money on lawyers while taking it away from the highway department. They put through an unworkable budget and voted it in two days after the election hoping to straddle the new administration with their mistakes.
The town has seven lawsuits on its hands all due to Williams and May’s blunders last year.
These two still sit on the board and try to explain their behavior as not being able to anticipate what lay in store for Milan in the coming year. They are the ones that created the present financial disaster and now they say the “must learn to live within its means”.
Maybe they could tell how this can be accomplished when they left no money for bridge repairs (we have to float a bond), no money for snow removal, no money for the pending lawsuits and the list goes on.
There is only one decent thing they can do, resign from the board and apologize to the people of Milan for the disaster they have created.
