The
Board voted 3-2 to appoint Pete Shelton to fill the vacancy left by Paul
Barros's resignation. The other nominee
for the vacancy was Malachy Smith.
How they voted:
For Shelton - Lauth, Pappas, Zubko
For Smith - Definis, Israel
Mr.
Barros reportedly resigned from the Board because someone had slashed the tires
on his car.
Apparently donations are being
solicited to reimburse Mr. Barros for his two tires.
Are victims of vandalism in BCC to
be compensated by charitable donations rather than prosecuting the perpetrator? How about all the past victims? Is this humane gesture to be extended
retroactively?
It has been reported that; "Everyone was disgusted at this
cowardly act against Paul Barros."*
Since the tire slasher was
certainly at the meeting, your blogger feels that not Everyone was disgusted..
Is the identity of the perpetrator
really such a mystery to all of us?

stomach strong enough to consistently sit through BCC's Board meetings.)
