Third meeting in ten days...

Friday 12-18-09 at 5pm, Paris Town Office. You guessed it - a selectmen's meeting. Agenda does not mention the word, but "emergency" meeting has been mentioned.

What possible emergency could be happening in this town? Perhaps a fire burned out a household and family? Perhaps another individual has been laid off, and everything he/she owned has been repossessed? Perhaps there has been a death as a result of an act of violence?

Or, perhaps, a certain few who had in mind to "take back our town and run it the way we want," [quote of an individual on a special committee appointed to assist Paris' Planing Board in the early spring of 2007] are frantically trying to grab the dregs of what they thought their limitless power was forever going to be.

Regardless, the citizens are not intended to know. Anything to be discussed will be in executive session. Imagine that...

Who is kidding whom?
