Unilateral decisions, exclusive meetings,it is unethical. The members of the board dedicate many volunteer hours from January through March only to watch the council elect treat the process with total dis-respect. Mr. Trueworthy is on an all encompassing power trip in his own mind. It is frightening to think that unilateral decisions being made can and will effect my future and your future financially.<br />It is negligent for any of us to simply sit back and watch it happen.<br /><br />Sally EigenraamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
