Absolutely un-true and you don't have a shred of evidence <br />for i t . You based your votes on Bob Thr i tenour ' s report, Bob <br />Whritenour recommended -that she be allowed to continue for six <br />months.. <br />Mrs. Pierce: So that we could straighten out some of this <br />business of rumor, things that were true and not true. You have <br />let us down previously. And, we are not going to forget it, In <br />the heat of this humidity, this terrible weather we have been <br />experiencing, a lot of us have been trying to get out petitions. <br />Mrs, Pierce: Now, its been very hot. Nobody really wants <br />to go out and stand in front of the post office and the library <br />to get them, but we have 224 names again for you, Two hundred <br />and twenty-four people who are outraged at the way you are <br />running this town! <br />Firs. Fierce: You know, your actions may pass, for.'.. some <br />of the thin s you are doing are sleeping under the log, but the <br />stench is awful and we don't like it! We are tired of it. We <br />want a town that is decently run. Open government, Carol, that <br />is your theme song. It has been. Open government. We want <br />reason. We know ghats going on underneath, there's just too <br />many people ratting on you. We want you to stand up and say it <br />to us, Isere are your petitions.. <br />s.

This is not going away. This is the <br />most horrible thing that has happened in Mashpee in my nine <br />years. <br />Ms, Hyde -Reed: I personally was selected by Carol Jacobson <br />to serge on the COA, much as, I don't know another person on the <br />board who was not selected,by carol. She said who do you thinkr <br />and we picked those people. And I didn't realize what an abuse <br />that was in my ignorance here. But now, I think we need to do <br />that differently. <br />Ms. Hyde -Reed: We want one of us on the board, or Margie, <br />someone that is going to ...we want someone that is going to run <br />a true meeting* And if you listen to those tapes, than is not a <br />professional meet in, I don't know what has happened. I ]snow I <br />wasn't right for it at the time. I had a very ill husband, but I <br />think -there is people who are ]getter qualified to do that right <br />now,* <br />0 <br />
