Oh, my! Good Governance: that’s what the TTA candidates for Tiverton Town Council ran on.
Now those from the TTA who were elected — I call them the Katzenjammer Kids — vote to elect a town solicitor with obvious conflicts of interest.
Wow! What a start. No list of qualified candidates. No real interviews. No bio-data sheet passed out at the 12/27 meeting. Smells really bad and looks worse.
Further, if any town solicitor is expected to serve honorably and with experience and integrity, why would someone lacking in qualifications with such an obvious conflict of interest accept this position? Technicalities aside, common sense compels us to object to this hiring and to be watchful for further shenanigans.
