Letter To The Editor – Against Neil Gardner

November 21, 2008 By eastwickpress

To the Editor:

Letter To The Editor – Against Neil Gardner

And A Vote Against Supervisor Sherman

 

To the Editor:  

I am a resident of the Town of Stephentown, and I no longer take pride in saying that.  I am appalled to know that recent actions along with the conviction of Mr. Gardner can be so blatantly laughed at by others in the state as well as local radio stations.  The residents of Stephentown are ALL being laughed at and I for one am personally tired of the immature behavior, bullying and threats that have come to be the norm in the town if you dare to speak your opinion.

Letter To The Editor – For Neil Gardner

November 21, 2008 By eastwickpress

To the Editor:

 

We are writing to show our support for Mr. Neil Gardner, formerly the Stephentown Highway Supervisor. As you know, he was convicted of wrongdoing in a blatant act of politicism. He has been railroaded by the small faction in our town who wants to see him ruined. We are thoroughly disgusted with our justice system and feel that this is a terrible injustice.

Letter To The Editor – The Capital Improvement Project

November 21, 2008 By eastwickpress

Why This Should Matter

 

To the Editor:

Seven months ago, the Berlin School Board voted to consolidate the elementary schools to reduce the cost of running the District.  

After that historic (or infamous) vote, we discussed the building project which had been on hold since 2005 while we argued the merits of consolidation.   [Read more…] about Letter To The Editor – The Capital Improvement Project

November 21, 2008 By eastwickpress
