Her statement that she will no longer send out the minutes until after the next meeting is in direct violation of all statutes concerning town meetings (and not a total surprise). The Town of Wirt is a very small community with limited work required to meet the standards and means described by legislation, however Wirt is the slowest township to post minutes from board meetings, does not abide by requirements to deposit funds received (have you read the audit? Not a big surprise there either) and generally has a haphazard mentality in doing the job as required by the state government and common sense. I also wonder what training and background the town assessors really have. I do not see the assessments as being correct on quite a few homes in the area. Just in my small neigborhood, there are some large discrepancies in value. I hate to take the little money I have to get my home appraised to compare it to the increase in value my home seems to have found, but it may come down to that very soon. And conflict of interest in this small town is a very big concern that needed to be addressed far before this. My only question at the moment is.................................. WHEN IS THE NEXT ELECTION SO WE CAN REVIVE THE TOWN BOARD AND THE CLERK'S OFFICE???????????????? (This is not directed at all, but only a select few) I think it is time for everyone to wake up and realize that somebody is not paying attention to their job. I for one know that if I did this level of productivity, I would have been on the unemployment line a long time ago. It's sad that elected officials do not face the same consequences. Retirement sounds like a very good idea at the moment. I for one will make sure that I am registered to vote in the proper town next time around so I can cast my vote for a change.
