He appealed to the selectmen to let him do so again Monday night.<br /><br />But the selectmen chose not to reappoint the ZBA chairman when his term expired in March. Ordway wasn't alone. Zoning board members Peter Bealo and Dan Lloyd were passed over, too. That means the five-member board has had just two full-time members for two months. Neither Bealo nor Lloyd attended the meeting Monday.<br /><br />Ordway said the three weren't reappointed because they served selectmen Dan Poliquin, Michelle Curran and Charles Blinn with zoning violations.<br /><br />Selectmen denied the charge.<br /><br />Poliquin and Curran said complaints from residents about Ordway's demeanor and his overreliance on administrative staff led them to vote against his reappointment.<br /><br />The two selectmen who did not receive violation notices, John Sherman and Robert Gray, voted to reappoint all three.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7874347369787241443.post-92085123792585321402010-05-18T12:50:54.906-04:002010-05-18T12:50:54.906-04:00Wikipedia is a valuable tool in this town for gett...Wikipedia is a valuable tool in this town for getting legal advice and all kinds of other *facts*.<br /><br />hahahaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7874347369787241443.post-63988820894289344392010-05-18T12:48:59.925-04:002010-05-18T12:48:59.925-04:00Just like everything else in town.Just like everything else in town.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7874347369787241443.post-54370970264405670232010-05-18T12:15:50.019-04:002010-05-18T12:15:50.019-04:00Lions club does many good deeds.

You may say, oh how nice, but this is another instance of misuse of public assets, not so nice if you look at the facts of the matter. Frank got this award the same way Consentino did, thru his connections with friends. Disgraceful and it takes any significance away from the award.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
