the letter reads...
The Board of Selectmen;
As a community group, we would like to ask you to add our web links to the Winchester Web page site under “useful links“. Our groups are all working for the betterment of the community and the public interest of lowering taxes and the public safety. Please add winchesterinformer.com, winchesterinformer.blogspot.com and winchesternoisecoalition.blogspot.com at your earliest convenience. This gesture would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Robert Davis

If the Dept. heads are doing their jobs and have nothing to hide, this should not be a problem.
Mr. Davis presented this letter to the board this past Wednesday night. They asked if they could come and view our sites and then they'd make their decision. We welcome any member of any board or commission to join in our discussions and add their comments.
Wednesday Sept. 10, the selectmen voted to turn down our request to link our sites from the town's home page.The selectmen stated
that "we decided that only sites that promote the town and promote recreational use will be linked to from the town's official web site" and that our site doesn’t meet their criteria. We didn’t really think they would let us link from the town site anyways; we just wanted to let the selectmen know, there is a new dog in this fight the winchesterinformer web site and the winchesterinformer blog. Just maybe by showing the town that they can no longer continue to hide everything, we may be able to get them to cut taxes and their wasteful spending and if nothing else we wll at least inform the citizens that care about Winchester and give them a voice. We pledge to take your concerns and bring them before the selectmen at their weekly meetings.
I guess there is some merit to that old saying; "truth hurts". There are really many good people working in this town that actually care about the town and it's citizens, it's a shame that they just won't stand up and be counted.
