Letter: Portsmouth Town Council in need of serious overhaul

Posted

To the editor:

This (Town) Council’s lack of evaluating issues correctly have discounted the importance of making fair decisions in the best interest of all citizens of the community.

There have been too many issues decided by this council that have not been handled amicably and that were completely biased. Whether this council is going up for re-election or candidacy in other public office, change is paramount! Before candidates exceed expectations and earn a vote, candidates must first meet expectations, which is consistently questionable with (the) Town Council.

I urge each and every voter to review video of Town Council meetings on the Town of Portsmouth’s website and come to your own conclusion before going to the polls.

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
