Letter to the Editor: Three Advocates or Three Shills?

"Fact of life, each of you is no longer relative to the fair, efficient running of Oakland Township," the author writes. "Please, get a hobby, spend more time with your grandchildren or move to a community where you might be more relevant ..."

A letter to the editor from Francis P. Hughes:

It is really pathetic to see Misters Michalski, Foulkrod and Edwards try to justify their service under the Fogler Era.

If they had opposed the rape of our Zoning Ordinance, protected our Millrace and endorsed a reasonable sized Blossom Ridge, etc.  they would have some thing to brag about. instead they betrayed the residents of Oakland Township.

Remember, they were telling all of us that Harvest Corners was a great thing for the Township and its residents They are like old cheese that has turned green and moldy. They likely never will admit their shortcomings that resulted in being voted out of office like Edwards, and not being re-appointed like Michalski and Foulkrod. They are so warped and wrapped up in themselves, I wonder if they have already had their Township service inscribed on their tombstones.

It is time for them to get out of the way and allow the present BOT to finish the job of cleaning up the mess that each of them helped create, and be rest assured,  that Township Supervisor Gonser will be held to the same standard as everyone before him was or should have been.

Fact of life, each of you is no longer relative to the fair, efficient running of Oakland Township. Please, get a hobby, spend more time with your grandchildren or move to a community where you might be more relevant and be assured that at least a portion of your service to Oakland Township was productive and appreciated by its residents.
Thank You,
Francis P. Hughes
