Now we know that the board eliminated the deputy position and now with the creation of the new comptroller's spot, they will have control of the appointment. Seems that the board does not feel the supervisor should be in charge of these decisions and are undermining the office of the supervisor. Didn't the people elect Walters to be our supervisor to make these decisions and to start change in the town. The board is not happy with him and is handcuffing his powers and they are deciding that only they can run the town. Looks like we have got what we have asked for by keeping these people in office. We have 9 months left. Let's take our government back!
