TOWN BOARD - MORE "Secret" Meetings

What is going on with the Town Board and their "illegal" Special Meetings being held to decide controversial issues in private??....no posting...no minutes...no public attendance. The Board's UNWILLINGNESS to provide REQUIRED public notice of Town Meetings has been an on-going issue....How many times over the past YEARS has this been brought to the Board's attention?? ...Yet they consistently violate the State's OPEN MEETINGS Law...as well as their oathes of office -- to UPHOLD THE LAW! Are they telling us they believe they are ABOVE THE LAW ??!! - NOT!!! Just this past week, another "secret" meeting was held to decide upon an Assessor, among other issues.... once again: no REQUIRED public notice...no MINUTES...

Help Bring BROADBAND SERVICE to NORTH BROOKFIELD !!

Folks, fill out that NORTH BROOKFIELD SURVEY to bring internet service to your area. Madison Co. is now renting out its cell tower to offset annual costs... and makes service more economically feasible because they can rent space on the tower rather than paying the high cost to build their own tower. North Brookfield has been identified as a underserved area that can take advantage of this opportunity ...see full article at UTICA OBSERVER DISPATCH http://www.uticaod.com/news/x1367233472/Madison-County-marketing-cell-tower-space#ixzz2dAbWslAn......... So, it's no coincidence that the Central NY Regional Economic Development Council is currently doing a Broadband Survey to help bring high speed internet access to those areas that do not have it, including North Brookfield. See the Town Website at:http://www.brookfieldny.us/ Please be sure to complete the survey ....your cell phone & internet depend on it!
