Happy New Year
Happy New Year friends and visitors. My resolution for 2008 is to provide insight and truth about the happenings in Scottsville.
Too often the populace, friends and businesses of Scottsville get half truths or a dizzying spin on the truth. Time and again some members of the governing body of the Town of Scottsville tell the public that they have “had very positive feedback from key members of the community” or they have “heard from members of the community” when pushing their agenda. Never in all my years living here have I heard actual names. Who are the key members of the community I wonder? Am I not a key member? Are not you a key member? We only have 550 or so members in the actual Town community and I would have thought with such a small number each and every one of these 550 people should be thought of as “key members”.
What section of the local populace do these “key members” represent? No one has ever polled my opinion in an official capacity? Have you ever been polled? I do not know everyone in Town, but I know a fairshare and none have ever been asked their opinion. However, many have offered it and yet their comments never gain the accreditation that the “key members” receive.
I hope that through this forum some of you may become enlightened about the truth in this Town. I also hope that some of you may contribute to this effort. As I write this I can already hear the naysayers condemning my efforts as they have done for years. They are the same people who want all the world to think this is some sort of Utopia. I could even name these individuals, but I will defer in the event that they will see the truth for themselves.
The truth shall set us free.

Steetscapes: who eliminated parts of the project from what was originally presented to the towns people? Were these items talked about in open sessions by an oversight committee? Who selected the person who was the town’s project inspector and where was the oversight of the job he was doing? The countless screwups during the streescapes project are completely the responsibility of the entire Scottsville Town Council, not just Jim Hogan. They should be held accountable. I strongly feel that not a single person on Council nor the Mayor should run for re-election this year. Shame on those of you who were directly involved and shame on the rest of you for standing by and doing nothing about it!
