That’s right, I’m the idea man

The town officials were whining in an article in The Auburn Town News, the local weekly, about complying with a rule that states that towns need to post notices of meetings two days in advance, not including weekends [the article makes a point of saying that twice], and saying they weren’t sure if they could possibly install a bulletin board outside of town hall in time to comply with the new rule.

Well lucky them, I live here in town, and I sent this off to the town clerk.  You’re welcome Auburn.

I was reading the article in the Auburn paper about how the town can’t seem to find a place to post notices of upcoming meetings and isn’t sure if it can find the time or money (not really sure which) to put up a bulletin board outside of town hall.

I can’t help but notice that there’s a fairly underutilized sign board right outside of the fire station on the high school side of town.  While I’m sure notices of sales of reflective house numbers are important, I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that the sign’s owned by the town.  Given the sign is at eye level, handicapped accessible by virtue of being on a paved surface, and likely owned by the town, why can’t notices simply be taped up in there while the town sorts out where to order lockable bulletin boards from?

I know you may come back and day that the back of that sign board is meant for large letters to be pushed into, however it’s not that hard to tape the notices to the inside of the glass.
