No impropriety

Letters to the editor for July 15, 2005 No impropriety I am writing in response to a letter published July 1 by Donald Siebold of Highland Mills titled "Who's in charge?" where he asks if the supervisor or a builder is in charge of the Town of Woodbury. Would Siebold be asking these questions if the current supervisor was male? After all, how could a poor, female supervisor possibly stand up to a big, bad male builder? And add to that the fact the current Town Board has four women in total. Siebold's letter also indicates that there is some impropriety when he states, "It's all about the money." Hey, Don, if you have proof, bring it on! But let me assure the people of Woodbury that there is no impropriety. This merely is misinformation, repeated often, that certain individuals hope the public will believe. Siebold is a member of the Woodbury Republican Committee, whose chairman is Ralph Caruso. This committee did not endorse Sheila Conroy, the incumbent supervisor. They have endorsed no one for the office. Why? That is a question the public should be asking. Siebold's questions have been answered on numerous occasions at public, televised Town Board meetings. So, folks, it's on the record. What are you going to believe, suppositions presented by a political party committee member or the documented public record? Lorraine McNeill Council member, Town of Woodbury
