The Council Member Mumbles On

FRANKSMITHSAYSNB EDITORIAL:

THE COSTCO ISSUE.
In today's New Britain Herald cites that 10 Alderman will vote for the zone change however, the paper reported that Mayor Pro Tempore Michael Trueworthy is leaning towards the zone change but still has questions. More research to do---questions on the legality of the Alex Stanley deed restrictions that applies to both the park and the golf course. There are thousands of details in the agreement that we don't have the answers to yet.
Well Michael You have lost my vote. I have attended both Costco informational meetings and found them very straight forward in what they had to offer and it seems strange that the Herald reports that ten of your colleagues are for the zone change requested by Costco. But you still have questions.

I am glad you are running at large so that my vote against you will count along with others that are for the Costco plan "B" arrangement that will bring the much needed income to our city.

Mr. Mumbles rumors has it that you are vying for O'Brien's seat in the legislature and that your campaign has already begun.

Didn't you report on your blog that Sharon Beloin is also vying for O'Brien's seat?

If you are trying to make sense out of Trueworthy's babbling, that is a task that just might drive you crazy as he appears to be.

I believe the commenter above meant to say that it is, Mike T. and Tim O. that are joined at the hip.

Hey Mike: Joe Montesano stated that if you and your Democratic council members refuse to approve the zoning request made by Costco, during your next council meeting, they will go to another town or city and will not spend another nickel for the New Britain effort to get this zoning change approved.

And this means what? That she is living in East Hartford with their two daughters? Who cares?

Apparently no one would care if Trueworthy were living in East Hartford anymore than they seem to care about their state representative living in Hartford.

The above shows that Trueworthy was involved in getting the A.G. involved in something that is none of her business! Trueworthy swore to Mayor Stewart that he did not contact Ms. Gano. Yet he is copied on all correspondence between the A.G.'s office and NB City Hall. Trueworthy's nose has bee getting longer, get it?

Karen Gano should get her information straight regarding the names of Political Leaders. PLEASE: Do NOT mix Timothy Stewart up with Michael Trueworthy. You cannot compare the two!! Timothy deserves better!!
