We read the letter to the editor, printed June 4, about how the “old fogies” in Sabattus got it.

Old fogies, eh? We also went to the meeting at Oak Hill High School on May 26, and was led to believe it was only going to be a vote. But it turned into a late night meeting.

We didn’t stay because we felt it would last awhile and, as people put it, it would go past the old fogies’ bedtime.

We resent that someone said “Let the old fogies have it. We’ll wait till they get tired, then we’ll let them have it.”

The “old fogies” pay their fair share of taxes in the town, but we don’t have a bottomless pit. Enough is enough.

We really believe if there isn’t at least 75 percent of the town population for a vote, it should be invalid. And no more late nights. Then people can’t say, “When the old fogies get tired, they’ll go home, and we’ll get what we want.”

We can’t see how using such underhanded tactics is legal. We think residents should get another vote on the issue, and only a vote in the daytime, not a late night “Wait-till-the-old-fogies-get-tired” kind of vote.
