There have never been problems with this in previous years. I find it hard to believe you feel that way when disregard for residents opinions does strain relations. If you are having problems with new requests - other towns with the same holidays have chosen to incorporate them in a diplomatic and efficient manner. Whatever new holidays are proposed in the future can be reviewed as they are requested. At that time, it can be decided whether inclusion is warranted.
Government buildings are closed and there is no mail delivery.
It should not be excluded. I can understand many problems cross your desk throughout the school year requiring immediate attention and am not criticizing your efforts. I do feel this well-meaning but misguided action is not a solution. For residents, like myself, who still do not know what prompted these changes - I would appreciate a written reply and in reflection, it is my hope you will consider restoring the calendar in its entirety. This letter is a continuation of our remarks previously published relating to the Zoning Board of Appeals.
