Expat Southbridge Town Council, August 6, 2011, 9am

On August 6th, the Southbridge Town Council had a controversial meeting at a local bank, in Sturbridge of all places. Two friends of mine wanted to go but were prevented in doing so because they didn’t have transportation. The chair also refused to acknowledge public input. I ended up leaving in frustration due to this, but apparently I should have stuck around because after I left the building, she changed her mind. (Funny, that.)

Filmed and edited by Jim Sottile. (I’d post the whole meeting, but this is all I’ve got.)

I generally prefer to post meetings in their entirety, but this edit from Mr. Sottile is all I’ve got at this point, and after this frustrating tech week I really don’t want to try to deal with any more divx-encoded video files for a good long time. If I can get a copy of the video Mr. Fernandez filmed, I will try and post that one.
