I admire your work, though I am not a Quietside resident, and though that area is your focus, I see that you cover other areas, like the salmon farm and cruise ships. I wonder if you would be interested in the protests that have happened sporadically outside Leonard Leo’s residence in Northeast Harbor. A number of us have been calling attention to the Federalist Society creds of this man since the Dobbs decision came down. We will next be there (46 South Shore Drive) at 5:30 this Saturday, allegedly when his sailing club returns from the water for cocktails. We have received positive support from his neighbors and the police have left us alone (though they’ve been called).
In response to the article about the Secret Emails Held by Tremont Attorney, I feel the behavior of attorney James Collier is inexcusable. He is supposed to be working for the Town of Tremont but instead he seems most interested in protecting and advancing the interests of the AWL Campground. This goes against the code of conduct all lawyers know and swear to. I have watched Mr. Collier at work for several years. His pretend folksy aw-shucks demeanor is annoying and condescending but would be excusable if he was doing his job. He clearly is not. It is time for the Selectboard of Tremont to replace him with a more professional advocate. Someone who will put his duty to the town before his personal (and perhaps private financial) interests.
