To the editor:
We the Secession Committee deeply regret the fact that we failed to explain to those who have concerns about the process or the intricate details that went into the report submitted to the public and the City Council. The environment in which the public hearing was held was tense with feelings running high on both sides of the issue of separation.
To the editor:
As chairman of the Caribou Planning Board, I feel obligated to respond to the inaccurate suppositions taken from the Caribou Comprehensive Plan by the Caribou Secession Committee.
First a little history: I lived in Caribou from 1977 to ‘99 and again from 2010 until this day, a total of 27 years. I currently reside on the Washburn Road in what I would consider the “rural” part of Caribou (close to the Woodland town line). I’ve known Maynard St. Peter for about 30 years and Doug Morrell for about 10 years. I like both of these guys and identify myself as a fiscal conservative as they do and the last thing I want to do is make any enemies. My sincere hope is that even if we have to agree to disagree on some things, I hope to remain friends with these two individuals.
