" connie, one should learn the facts before they attempt to input. rather than monday morning quarterbacking robb, perhaps you should explain why it is in fact his fault. he was unfairly attacked at the last board meeting, and has done nothing wrong. before you go to place the blame on him, you should look into what his property suggestions were, and what the board at the time, shot down. perhaps after researching robb's side, and not reading a biased summary, you will then be able to understand the complexity of the situation.
