It was a humdinger of a meeting tonight at the town council. Steve Culleton stuck to his position the process was flawed. Alan White felt the process needed to protected.
It certainly got ugly at times and the same five people will have to get on the same dais on Tuesday night. It will be interesting to see how they co-exist after Monday's meeting.
Those who spoke at the meeting reflected the same thing we've seen here at The Post: The public doesn't want this deal and it doesn't want the companies the town is going to deal with.
And the majority of the town council seemed to say: We don't care what you want say, these are the companies we're going with. It seemed the council was as tone deaf as Kim Yamaguchi has been on the issue.
They may be right -- and they better be because there's a good chance this will be a factor in November when Dresser and Lotter will have to defend this vote at a election time.
And in 14 days the county will have to vote on the same issue. That's 14 more days of politicking -- this time county folks.
The fight has only just begun.
