Minutes????
 

Whom ever writes the minutes for this board, may do better handing the task over to a High School Englsh class.  I by no means am a professional writer, but these minutes are useless.  I am not sure how the minutes are approved by the board on March 4th and it takes two entire days to post them for the public to view.  This board does not make good use of  "The Information Super Highway," (the internet), or the postal service for that matter.  Yet this board does not understand why towers do not respond to them, duh!!!!! because they have miserably failed to reach out and inform the towers.  The minutes for the January 15th meeting are all of two pages, that are filled with "fluff", nothing informative as usual with this board.  I find it hard to believe, as well as insulting, that the board expects us to believe that in just short of two hours these were all of the details they could muster up for our reading pleasure. 

Further more it would be very nice if this board would consider towers worthy enough for full disclosure.  I would truly have liked to read more about the discussions between the committee members and the PR firms they were conferencing with, it is listed in their minutes, minus any details of course! 

In the future it may be more effective as well as efficient if the board just bottle meeting minutes, notes and info, and float them to me via the Chesapeake Bay!  There is a light house close by, I am willing to learn morris code, if anyone truly believed that the information would reach us any better than it does now!  Yes, my sarcasm may be a bit much, however it is to this point members of the towing inudstry have been pushed.  We are forced to face this board with all of it's smoke and mirrors, with little help from the very government that up until this point I believed was in place to protect me.
