Hi Matt, good to see this local progress with a potentially successful RSU reported. Now for other potentential districts to move right along as did Bath, etc. and the group you described in today's article. Consider following this example, Fayette, Winthrop and the four towns, eh? One good thing, I believe, is that longtime, Maine, rabid, 'townie' politics now faces a tough opponent in the good aspects of consolidation (even thought not well conceived at the policy level). Wow am I as one Mainer proud of those extraordinary people who can find a way to take a a good but poorly conceived idea and make a purse out of a sow's ear, eh?
