For inexplicable reasons, the Middleboro Board of Selectmen charged the Town Manager with inspection and enforcement of the Town's Earth Removal By-Laws.
.Those By-Laws allow Gravel Removal Operations on the pretext of creating cranberry bogs because after all, Middleboro is the Cranberry Capital.
.
Many of those in their efforts to comply with their engineering plans complain of Mr. Healey's difficult dealings, but one of the biggest complaints seem to be from those who complied, but witnessed others being allowed to work with no permits with Mr. Healey's full knowledge.
.
Ooops!
.
One such project continued to excavate after hitting water. The gravel operation filled the deep holes with stumps cleared from the gravel removal and was covered with dirt to produce the weedy appearance of a bog, an adjoining subdivision created and the project abandoned.
.
The stump dump will cause problems after Mr. Healey's demise, so who can blame him? What's a little methane between friends? inter alia.
.
Don't you just hate those satellite photos that document these project, Jack?
.
And don't you just hate those trouble makers who bothered to take photos?
.
Keep in mind, Jack, that your casino sham activated folks who are participating, asking questions and wondering about what you have done to their Town.

Democracy is NOT a Spectator Sport!

isnt it ilegal to burry stumps?
I'm kicking myself for not getting involved earlier. I hope the good people of Southbridge are reading your blog and taking notes. Jack has burned his bridges with many of the residents of Middleboro because he flies by the seat of his pants and makes up his own rules as he goes along. For sure, he's from the good ole boy network!
Jack had a big problem with transparency during his tenure as Town Manager. Gee, I wonder why. Beware of politicians who hide from the light.
One thing you have to credit Jack with is his ability to get things done once he sets his mind to it. Some of things were good. Some of those things were bad. Facts never stopped Jack from accompishing his purpose. The leaders of Southbridge need to form their own opinions regardless of Jack's dazzle.
One of those parcels is on Stone St and I have the photos to prove it. No permit and Jack knew.
Theres alot more we can talk about over coffee
The man was a busy little bee
MR, I know about several. You're right.
No one ever noticed all those missing memos that never reached the BOS when Jack was Town Manager. You need to control to accomplish what he did and none had the brains to notice.
