NotThePTA.org: December 2014
http://notthepta.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 11, 2014. So much for Perspective . In an attempt to balance the State budget, The Guv:. Never touched the $1 million set-aside for the benefit of Heritage Museums, a private non-profit organization; despite the fact that Heritage had already announced they did not intend to use the funds to make the public road improvements for which the funding had been intended. Who gave the go-ahead for the Sandwich Stadium work before the money was actually received? Randy Hunt said it best when h...

NotThePTA.org: September 2014
http://notthepta.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 26, 2014. Missed Opportunity - - I'm sure SOMEBODY must. Have seen this guy nesting along the Service Road? The No-Gas crowd saved the best for last. The mind-numbing broadcast caused me to nod off more than a few times, but I have a distinct memory that one of the last speakers had a lovely English accent and spoke of the Town shredding Baby Birds in a wood chipper. On the other hand, more than a few of their neighbors thought they had been invited to a barroom brawl! Ironically, they ...

NotThePTA.org: Got Gas ?
http://notthepta.blogspot.com/2014/09/got-gas.html
Sunday, September 21, 2014. It may not stop the pipeline - but. It might improve the next Public Meeting! The latest installment of the "Don't Pass Gas in My Neighborhood" saga has gotten silly. Parishioners at Corpus Christi were treated to flyers on their windshield after Mass this week encouraging them to come berate the Selectmen about saving the trees. At least now we're admitting the problem is about a loss of trees and potential changes to their view or ambient sound levels. The Gas Company got ap...

Tuesday, October 07, 2014. LET'S FIND OUR 2020 VISION By Jim Pierce. My crystal ball proved reasonably accurate. Please feel free to "reprint" the article with reference to its original publication date, if you like. LET'S FIND OUR 2020 VISION. During the week of February 14 the final piece in a giant puzzle was placed face up on the table for the selectmen and school committee. Now all those pieces have to be assembled into a Capital Asset Plan for Sandwich. What about public safety? There seems to be g...

Wednesday, July 09, 2014. The Case With No Winners. UPDATE - The CCT is reporting that Dr. Johnson has not agreed to the settlement. The Town is still on the hook for $465,000 but no other details are available. From the Cape Cod Times: Sandwich to pay Johnson $500K. No surprise. But, it's too bad that winning a case doesn't actually produce any winners - unless you count the lawyers who benefited from a four year unsupervised billing orgy! Does anybody think it is unusual that a District would ban their...

NotThePTA.org: A kick in the Ass-troTurf
http://notthepta.blogspot.com/2014/12/a-kick-in-ass-troturf.html
Wednesday, December 10, 2014. A kick in the Ass-troTurf. Initial reports are that Deval cut funding for the DeConto Stadium artificial turf from the budget . after the Town spent the money. This sounds like a $500,000 headache coming our way. You can see the Guv's thinking . If Sandwich taxpayers didnt want to fund the plastic grass, why should taxpayers from Quincy, Amherst, North Adams, etc. be forced to fund it. Probably an easy cut to defend - easier than cuts to child welfare at least! Not to fear o...
