The roof leaks and we need a new ballfield?

To the editor, Laconia Daily Sun March 17, 2009

We just came back from the Moultonborough Town Meeting. It was a joke. The selectman are still

snaking all the ball field at the Lions Club, which they should hold off on. The economy is falling apart

and people are hurting. Ball fields are NOT needed at this time. What are the selectmen thinking?

Now they say the Town Hall needs a new roof because the roofer who put it on did not do a good job and it isleaking. So why not take the money you want to use for the ball fields and use that for the Town Hall roof? Now that makes more sense. The ball field proposal is a joke. Where is the reason for this? Don’t you think the roof is the towns first concern and NOT the ball fields. Next you will be telling us the safety building needs a roof and the library. Where does it end? Our hard-earned tax dollars are being wasted. The selectman snake anything and everything they want. Our votes do not mean much. This is another reason why SB-2 should have gone through. We need to take the power back to the taxpayers, not the special interest. They know who they are. Someone needs to tell

them we are in a bad state of the economy.
