Perhaps it is time, past time, to demand full transparency in Town Council/Manager spending on legal fees. What are the protocols by which individuals or the group consult with lawyers. How much did APPL cost the town? How much did it cost the town to settle Leonard Leo instigating an officer to violate a resident's rights? ( It would've been two settlements if police leadership had not resisted pressure from Leo and the former Town Manager Sutherland in another instance.)
And then, there was the sweetheart deal given disgraced former Town Manager Kevin Sutherland to spend more time with his family after he was caught on tape colluding with APPL and to keep mum on where the Town Council skeletons are buried. That $80,000 or so could've gone to better uses.
