Ireton Responds to Announcement of Tilghmans Press Conference on WWTP

Ireton responds to announcement of Tilghman Press Conference on Wastewater Treatment Plant

--Salisbury--Candidate for Salisbury Mayor, Jim Ireton, today responded to yet another last minute, end of term, press conference by Salisbury Mayor Barrie Parsons Tilghman. Ireton said "It is my hope that someone in the media here in Salisbury will just ask the simple question: The plant cost taxpayers 40 million dollars. Mrs Tilghman, how much more will it cost to get this working?" This news at the Wastewater Treatment Plant comes on the heels of the Environmental Task Force recommending filtration systems for outfall pipes (that Ireton testified in favor of, and Mr. Comegys voted twice in the same night against) and the news that no report is due out from the Mayor's Crime Task Force. "We have 14 days until this kind of governance by drama ends. I encourage our citizens to listen carefully to what Mayor Tilghman has to say about taking full responsibility, you'll notice that we have heard it all before." Ireton added.

If that phrase doesn't sum up what this city has been through the last decade, nothing does.

Joe,

I don't agree with all of the opinions on this site, but I am so grateful that you do keep this area informed about all of the waste that the taxpayers have had to deal with in this city. I recently moved into city limits and registered to vote and I cannot wait to cast my vote for Ireton. So many times we just go along with the way things are and assume that it is just like a prison sentence that we have to endure. Just like we all have the right to disagree on certain issues, we also have the right to vote for what is right and to vote against what is wrong. As far as April 7th is concerned, don't just sit back and expect others to vote for what you believe in. Just make sure that YOU vote for what you believe in.
