Channel Pilot, apologies accepted
If it's worth it to you, can you share what happened at the meetings you attended? I think that is great input for the conversation as the clinic's proposal was not the only issue in contention. Other issues were that Shanna Saunders was pretty much forced into making this decision on her own, and that the public outcry was not taken into consideration whatsoever. How could it be really? Furthermore in the future, issues that are similar in nature or draw much public & official controversy should be put in front of the entire planning board, and they were pushing for legislation that states so, not dumped on one person, regardless of sq. footage. Shanna Saunders was left to make a big decision and for what it's worth I respect her decision tremendously. She was stuck between a rock and a hard place. Her decision reflects a respect and compassion for those seeking treatment, and a concern for public safety and the impact the clinic has on residents and it's surroundings in my opinion
