GHAAC: Sid Knutson Resigns Position

The Greater Hansville Area Advisory Council ("GHAAC") continues to struggle with the problems resulting from the County's decision to make GHAAC the voice of Hansville, and to give it preferred, formal status with the County. I recently posed some questions to Sid Knutson, the GHAAC representative from my neighborhood, and he was not too thrilled with that - or with some other aspects of GHAAC membership. So, on July 10, 2008 he resigned, providing notice to GHAAC chairperson Judith Foritano via email. He attributes his resignation to various causes, but one that he comes through prominently is his irritation with me and others who ask unpleasant questions and/or are critical of GHAAC. Apparently, those of us who are living "outside the Beltway" are supposed to just keep quiet, genuflect, and thank the County and GHAAC for acting on our behalf and making decisions for us.

I have not figured a way yet to post PDF documents on this blog - and perhaps it simply cannot be done - but I can share the correspondence between me and Mr. Knutson if requested by email. Click on my profile (over on the right side of this page) for the address.
