Rezoning
Thirty years ago I lived in Vermont and enjoyed their
Town Meetings........(Even got elected once.)....
Now it is 2000 and for the first time in years I attended
a mini-mini non official rezoning meeting.......Only
3 local people showed up but 6 lawyers did......
Just getting up, in the back of the room, to ask questions
and doubt the legal spoken word, was fun......It reminded
me of those old days some 30 years ago........
It is very simple to do......#1 Just bring in a lot of paperwork......
#2 Have a big pad and pencil......#3 Sit in the back of the
room.......Number Three makes all the lawyers turn around
and look at you......They are not accustomed to that type
of maneuver and it does throw them off their "game".....
But, just like in Vermont, the rezoning will go through......
Property owners and lawyers will make their money and
profit.......The local "politico" will tell falsehoods and get his
"cut".......But it was fun to just upset their little "pre-dinner
apple cart."........Pumps
