ROCKLAND (Nov 23, 07): Friday night at 6:00 pm the Rockland community comes together again to light the community Christmas tree. Consisting of lobster traps stacked 34' high, it's a thing to behold. Lighting the tree has been a long time ritual in the Rock City; one I look forward to each year.
It's also the night that the new mayor and council is introduced to the crowd. I'll be introducing new mayor Hal Perry.
As we prepare to enter into a happy New Year, let us hope that this council returns the dialogue to a civil conversation. We're not going to agree on everything. Sometimes it may seem like we can't agree on anything. But can't we at least agree to treat each other with decorum and class?
I think this board has that capability and am looking forward to meetings where the rhetoric is dialed down, the grandstanding placed on hold and the business of the community being completed in a friendly and orderly manner.
Happy holidays! -H-
