I never heard of it, is it still around?
Also I saw that the charter to Atlantic city is leaving today at 2:15. The airport website says to call for information. Has anybody taken this flight?
I recall in the late 80's when Levy reigned supreme there was the threat of a suit of 10 taxpayers "group" if he and other council members didnt get outta of Mulfords way re: letting Mulford run the day to day operations of the city.
This was back when the city charter was changed to allow a popularly elected "weak" mayor. Also known as Lunch Bucket Democrat mayors, depending on who was holding the office.
Levy & Murray are both Prima Facia cases for no strong mayor in Worc. b/c municipalities need CEO types and not political types to run $500M "companies"
I declare the next 72 hrs rant free unless Sundays paper really sends my pinball machine off balance........then all the bells, whistles & lights will be fired up
BTW does anyone here call their city councillor when their Cable service fails. I only call them when there is a pile of shopping carts in front of my bridge abutment after the snow melts. File Under: Phil the Carter Cable Guy.
it used to have some pull when the city had some taxpayers..now all the city has are those on the dole benefitting from taxpayers living in other communities

Do you know who runs those Charters?
Believe that Skyline
http://www.myskylineflight.com
Or you can charter a VLJ from Linear out of Hanscom.
Ken Brown runs Skyline. Met him once when we tried to meet with the Airport Liaison a couple years back to discuss topics concerning ORH.
He seemed like a very nice guy
Time for a suit of 10 taxpayers again?
