Mr Bunce does represent the majority of the residents that I've talked with recently. Most of us have fought this battle for so long, if you talk before the council, the referred to majority does every thing but listen and looks bored not concerned. Only the new members and the mayor show any interest..(It should get lots better when they have the internet in front of them to play with during council meetings.)
The big mistake was reelecting an incumbent and keeping the old majority.
In questioning the donations in a previous meeting. One member seems to have a very vested interest in the airport. Is he going to be allowed to vote on that donation? It was also noted by a member that the Sr. Center has it's own budget covered. Most of the service organizations on the island have fund raisers and contribute to the island rather than asking for handouts.
