I've tried to personally contact everyone i knew at the meeting last night to give our sincere thank you. There are a few folks I dont know. So to you..thank you for taking the time from your day to be there for us. Means a great deal to have such support in an otherwise nasty situation.

So late yesterday, the day of the meeting that has been scheduled for 5 weeks, we get a message that the elevator at town hall is out "indefinitely".
Ok, so I just had total knee replacement 3 weeks ago and you're asking me to climb 3 flights. OK. I will have to sit for the 3 hours you kept us there, thank you very much.

But what about the others that showed up to the meeting and left because they couldn't climb the stairs? I'm sorry you were unable to attend a public hearing.

Thank you to those of you that showed up but may have experienced this.
Honestly having two fire fighters there to help, what do you expect they would do? Carry people?

Good info, there are so many invasives here. We need to get people to know them and control before it gets too late and they are too big. If you've ever driven through Tennessee you know how invasives change the landscape. No those aren't giant topiaries they're kutzu. Thankfully our bittersweet, japanese knotweed and such can be controlled takes commitment. I see so many invasives in the streams and ditches, this will not end well. The Tavern property has Japanese knotweed that is currently being worked on, as well as rosa regosa which will go this spring.

Why are invasive species a problem? Prevent invasive species from spreading in local ecosystems by identifying invasive plants and learning how to stop invasive plants.

ok, I've been quiet too long. Do you all know about the battle with 15 Portland road? The house the town owned, neglcted and when finding out all of it's structural and dangerous elements, fire sold it to an unsuspecting potential Kennebunk citizen?
AGAIN, they were denied just like us to do anything with THEIR PRIVATE PROPERTY.

If it's "so special" why didn't the town keep it and "fix" it?

I have a request of all the Protestors on Thursdays, why don't you pay attention to our local problems and help change the way this town operates then focus on things you can't control?

Ask yourself, who are the people on the "binding boards", Planning, Site Plan, Historic preservation. What is their background, experience. How can they successfully contribute to keeping Kennebunk going?

In my experience, NO ONE wants to really be on a board, so once someone finally applies they take them. No real questions asked.

Just saying... If you own a business here, you should be paying attention. We decided NOT to own a business because of this "HOA" form of Government. That's exactly what it is. Pits neighbors against neighbors.

GET THE REAL PROFESSIONALS IN THESE POSITIONS OR GET A COUNCIL TO HOLD ACCOUNTABILITY..
PHEW, I feel better but am frustrated for the owner of 15 Portland road.

WE ARE STILL FIGHTING BUT REALLY NO ONE LISTENS

IF YOU NEED MORE INFO GO TO MEETING MINUTES OF LAST WED HPC MEETING.

sure wish I could be talking about rebuilding the Tavern building. Still hoops to get through, and after this, probably not going to be easy.

So update, I sent a letter to Leslie Trentalage our select board member who is the one making the outragous personal accusations to resign. I don't need people like her who can't control themselves with decorum representing me, how about you?

To give a little context to the happenings at the rsu school board meeting. I personally don't think boys should compete against girls in sports. I'm not transphobe, I have friends with trans kids. But I do think that the physical differences can be dangerous to the girls and I don't think boys with "boy parts" should be in girls locker rooms even if they think they are girls. Keep it safe and equitable. Trans kids can have their own leagues and lockers. Just don't pretend to be a girl when clearly with the physical differences you're not. Even Kaitlyn Jenner agrees.

In case you need more info.

In case you need more info.

Leslie Trentalange stepped down from her school board liaison position after backlash to her statements criticizing those opposed to transgender students participating in school sports.

So I have to be honest, we've been through a lot in this town especially with staff and boards. Never in my life would I have expected to be called a pe*****le by one of my elected select board members.
This is my statement, let me know if you think she's right.

People, we have got to start being kind, we all will not agree on everything but to resort to this type of attack is out of control.
