The Brodie Park South Study Group/Committee is meeting this evening at 7:00 p.m.  in the Senior Center at Town Hall.  According to the agenda for the meeting, there will be one hour allocated at the beginning of the meeting for public input “on agenda items ONLY;” see the agenda at the end of this report. It has been rumored that the public input section will be moderated by someone outside of the Study Group/Committee’s membership but we have not been able to get confirmation of this from the Chairman, Dan Eddy.

Seniors’ Position Statement

We are able to confirm that the Seniors will not be represented at the meeting. They have withdrawn from the Study Group/Committee because the seniors felt, as a Senior Center Board member told our reporter today “we were spinning our wheels.” Asked whether they had submitted a position statement to the chairman of the committee, the Senior Board member said that they had submitted their statement in June of 2010 and nothing came of it. Following is a copy of the Seniors’ position statement submitted last year:

We hope to publish the position statements of the remaining groups represented on the Study Group/Committee after this evening’s meeting.
