The Item editor, Jan Gottesman, published a lengthy article about the 1 November 2021 Select Board meeting– https://www.telegram.com/story/news/local/the-item/2021/11/02/lawyers-wrestle-over-legality-official-refutes-charges-no-investigation/6243460001/?fbclid=IwAR3jSV59jE-2o_tc4v_D_87lLAynJe3YKWULDVUc__rstARY6KOw-u5Yhrc
The article has little logical flow and is disjointed, with quotes and finger-pointing by lawyers and various Municipal Building denizens. In that way it illustrates, in its own way, perfectly, what a TOTAL SH*TSHOW is Sterling’s so-called ‘Town Government’ under the present Select Board.
The previously reported ‘services’ procurement acts by out-on-paid-leave Town Administrator Kellie Hebert were, presumably, handled in Executive Session. Remember, it was Kellie Hebert and the Tax Collector/Treasurer who used a computer to delete the “Approval History” boxes on Board of Health Agent David “Nowhere Man” Favreau’s COMPLETELY NON-ITEMIZED time sheets, that I requested in accordance with Mass. Gen. Laws Ch. 66, Sec.10, because THEY were the approvers! Unbeknownst to them, I had a few copies from another source. Do I have any regard for ANY of THEM? ABSOLUTELY NOT.
In Executive Session, at least, our ‘Lady of Perpetual Bullsh*t,’ Maureen Cranson, was prevented from showboating, grandstanding, and, yes, bullsh*tting the public (as was her primary prop, the Bent Buffoon). She can always do that elsewhere, and, doubtless, she will. That’s her modus operandi.
Whatever the relative, competing merits, DON’T FORGET that it was THIS Select Board that hired Kellie Hebert about ten (10) months ago.
Folks can request the Executive Session meeting minutes later under the “Open Meeting Law.” Folks can stream the public portions of that Select Board meeting here– https://townhallstreams.com/stream.php?location_id=80&id=40906

STERLING, MASSACHUSETTS, OVERWATCH 
How come you censor all comments? Nothing requires that the discussion be in executive session if the subjects of the complaints want open session.
Any high school graduate can understand that from reading the OML. You claim to be a lawyer (ha ha) and you can’t understand that?

I screen all comments because I get a few imbecilic ones such as yours. I didn’t write about the legality of the action taken. I commented on the tactics employed. You can’t understand that? You claim to be able to read (ha,ha)? You need to repeat grade school.
