To The Editor:
I am yet again at a loss by the decision of the three mask-mandate deniers on our select board. Thank you Jon Jameison and Brian Shupe for standing up for what we need, not we want. No one wants to wear a mask.
Science not politics. Science not pride. Communism? We are a tourist town. You are putting us all at risk. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Sorry this isn’t politics. This is about caring about one another in this Valley. Fayston did it. Warren did it. You were elected to protect our best interests as Waitsfield residents, not govern in your own best interests and whims. Never mind the outpouring on FPF or FB for the mandate where 9/10 at least support a mask mandate. This week 54 residents joined via Zoom for your meeting. 54!? Way more than an average SB meeting. And 51 wanted a mandate. 51-4.
There is no room for your outdated communist fears in this Valley. You are estranged from reality. You are unfit to run this town. Come Town Meeting Day in March, vote. Vote them out.
