Your Tax $$$ Being Spent to Deny Your Vote

In a stunning development, the Board of Trustees of the Westhampton Free Library produced a Report of Selection of Trustees at the April 13 board meeting that disenfranchises the Library taxpayer.

However, the Library also distributed their confidential attorney letter, that shows how the Library set out to prove their premise in a roundabout and deceitful manner that an appointed board is the only way to go.

Sadly, our vote was denied using our tax dollars to pay for the "research" basically unrelated to a publicly elected Library Board of Trustees.  Association libraries with elected trustees, many with unions, exist in Suffolk County, on Long Island, in NYS and across the country.  They have been thriving for decades and decades.

The attorney's letter in its entirety as well as Board President Tom Moore's email requesting the attorney's opinion, in addition to the Board's Report on the Selection of Trustees and their Executive Summary, can all be viewed on the website above.

Please get involved. If you believe in democracy and in the right to vote, this is an issue for you. We need your help.
