The resignation of just elected Selectman Daniel Champagne over the continued funding of their municipal golf course—a much larger White Elephant than Cherry Hill-- demonstrated just how tough it is for somebody with a core to survive petty town politics.
God knows how often I tried to get our Select board to place on the ballot a non-binding question about continuing to operate our municipal tax drain, but town officials prefer to stick their head in the sand.
They will, of course, find out soon enough when the May 1’st Override sinks in a sandtrap.
A couple weeks back the Town Manger, when asked how he would react to an Override defeat arrogantly replied he would “give it a haircut” and bring it back.
So Mr. Shaffer, how do you give something that gets scalped a haircut?
