My math says that the mil rate could have been kept flat if we had that $950,000 to use. You know, the $950,000 that Ed St. John spent without authorization to help the developers. The $950,000 that Keli Bollard never mentions at the Board of Finance meetings. The $950,000 that Deangelis never headlines on his web site.
Yep, our taxes could have been flat this year, but you didn't read it on ourmoneypit. You heard it here and you heard the truth.

Somebody voted for Eddy Boy !
A room full of idiots will be meeting tonight to plan Ed St. John's triumphant return.
That room is number 26 in Shepardson Community Center. The idiots are the Middlebury Republican Town Committee starring no other than Kelli Bollard as Ed's campaign manager.
Kool Ade will be served. In large quantities, obviously.
Yeah, the kid from Washington Depot who registered to vote at the Town Hall (with a little help) on a Saturday...
well if kelli ann would run again it wouldn't be kool aid , it would be twinkies and ho hos'
Those houses on Washington Drive will all be four bedroom houses. No age restrictions, folks. You're looking at another Brookside.
Let's use the Brookside math to show you what this will cost. Each house will have two school age children. Each kid costs $13,000 per year. The house is taxed at $7,000 per year.
Ka-ching!
Let's do it slowly so the moneypit crowd can follow along. Two kids times $13,000 equals $26,000 per year. Subtract the $7,000 in property taxes and you get - are you ready for this - $19,000 per house drag on Middlebury!
They could build 100 houses there. Maybe more. No age restrictions!
Let's multiply it out folks. 100 houses times $19,000 drag per house equals - hold your wallet - $1.9 million dollars per year.
So folks. You have your Brookside. Now you have your Long Meadow Farms.
Oh wait. The Ginsburg Development. a/k/a Ridgewood Golf Course. Hundreds of condos. No age restrictions. Same math.
And you want to bring Ed St. John back? The man who brought you all of this?
How is Ed gonna balance the budget with all those kids coming in? How is anybody gonna keep things reasonable with that big bubble?
Of course! Kelli Bollard, the financial expert, will find a way. That's why she's helping to get rid of that stupid Gormley. The stupid guy with his stupid forensic audit and his stupid commercial development plans.
Kool-Ade anyone? Better stock up!
I heard that one of the members tried to speak up about the $950,000 at the last MRTC meeting but were quickly shut down by the Doctor and his soldiers.
I also heard that there was plenty of time spent cracking wise about Tommy and all his mistakes. Of course no help was offered.
It's great to know that our town is in such great hands, isn't it?
