Letter To The Editor – Bordering On The Obese

To the Editor:
Two predominate themes during the mid-term elections were job creation and the size of government, and yet the Town of Berlin is poised to both increase the size and expense of government and eliminate any chance for job creation should it take title to the Berlin Lumber property. I’m all for growth and modernization, but this borders on obese.
The people of Berlin should not confuse a good real estate deal with a good plan. And speaking of plans, I have yet to see any sketch, floor plan, elevation drawing, plot plan or specifications for the proposed work to turn Berlin Lumber into the new Town center. No wonder people are skeptical! So far this proposal has been faith based. Now it’s time for facts.
Sincerely,
David Theriault
