Thankfully, Councilors Flynn, Jahnz and McKenna have approved an ordinance which treats all outside entities requesting a sewer tie-in the same, regardless of campaign contributions or personal friendships.

Now we have Councilor "shoot-from-the-hip" Flynn who saw political opportunity with the incident with the town vehicle issue. He would change regulations and wrote a proposal. The town charter gives personnel authority to the town administrator. Then Flynn said he was going to pull the ordinance. At the Town Council meeting on Jan. 15 he in fact submitted his proposal to the ordinance committee confusing all those attending, including members of the council who questioned why he was doing this. He responded to this writer's query that he was concerned "the issue may come up again in 10 years" and he wanted the town to be prepared in case it does. Huh? Administrator Almond, it seems to most, handled this whole affair with professionalism, promptness and good judgment. Mr. Flynn also drafted the town's new sidewalk repair ordinance which will cost the town thousands of dollars without any idea how it will be paid for and has stated so. Expect no dollars from the state.
...
Flynn did promise this to his constituents. What a pal.

Voting against was Jay O'Grady and John Flynn.
