In case you hadn’t noticed, the dishonest hacks constituting the Sterling Select Board are completely out of control and running amok. They want to be the new “Permit Granting Authority” (PGA) under the thoroughly bent, crony crafted, developer promoted proposed new Earth Removal By-Law (Article 47, 2021 Annual Town Meeting Warrant– ( https://www.sterling-ma.gov/sites/g/files/vyhlif1266/f/uploads/2021_6_14_atm_sterling_warrant_0.pdf ) — SEE previous post, this Blog, entitled “BEDROCK CRONYISM-THE PROPOSED, REVISED EARTH REMOVAL BY-LAW,” and are now displaying their contemptible underhandedness by abusing the Town Meeting “Consent Calendar” process in an undisguised effort to ram through multiple Zoning By-Law changes set forth in Articles 28 through 41 of the Annual Town Meeting Warrant. SEE previous post, this Blog.
.
So check out Annual Town Meeting Warrant Article 54, “CITIZENS PETITION [WINK, WINK]: ELIMINATE THE PUBLIC WORKS BOARD.” Eliminating the D.P.W. Board will vest all of its powers and authority in the dishonest Select Board hacks, the thought of which should make us all recoil.
SO SEND A MESSAGE TO THESE HACKS: VOTE DOWN WARRANT ARTICLES 28 THROUGH 41, ARTICLE 47, AND ARTICLE 54.
