THE LAWYERS ARE GATHERING

Well. looks to me like the table is set for the "business" community to hijack our neighborhood organization.
I can't believe that the merchants group is acting in their own interests in allying themselves with Doug and Phyllis.
Perhaps there is a bit of greenmail involved. do these merchants believe that the people from the surrounding neighborhoods will contuinue to support the fairhaven businesses if they participate in a coup d'etat to oust the long standing representatives of Fairhaven in favor of a puppet group headed by Doug Robertson and Phyllis McKee?

the stage being set by Doug is to have the City officials certify the proposed umbrella group proposed by Doug (he has applied for a charter from the state). and the city officials: what is the process that they wll follow having bowed to the pressure from threatened lawsuits?
I don't think that it would be too wise to wait and see how this plays out.

Doug is a lawyer
Doug is a developer
Doug wants to control the process
Doug has gotten the process derailed once
Doug is not sitting still

It isn't that I don't like Doug, it is just that he has no use for us.

my opinion.
