11/26/07 Selectmen's Meeting #1

To those who didn't watch this meeting, it was so good, that phone calls repeatedly interrupted our viewing. Good thing we tape it to savor every moment!

You sure got your cable bill's worth this evening! They just keep getting BETTER!

It was announced that those of you who switched to Verizon and don't currently receive the BOS broadcasts that make the entire cost worthwhile, MAY have service in January 2008.
The COA announced the appointment of its new Director -- Andrea Priest. Anyone who knows Andrea is impressed with her abilities!
Selectman Rogers inquired about the Seniors' Incentive Program that was voted on at Town Meeting in 2005. That program would allow seniors to reduce their real estate taxes by $500 through volunteer work for the Town. Other towns have moved forward to implement the program, but Middleboro? Here we are more than 2 years later and the Chairwoman is still making excuses for the BOS inability to figure out the details. Although she offered all the information and details to Mrs. Priest, where has she been for + 2 years?
Has anyone noticed an emerging pattern of issues that the BOS has neglected for YEARS?
Will this BOS ever do its job?
