Dear Dr. Castagnola,
I shall publish your reply on the web site (http://109million.homestead.com). Thank you for your prompt attention concerning the misrepresentation by BL Companies about New Fairfield School building projects. Unfortunately this misrepresentation created an unwanted perception leading to many questions and second guessing as to whether or not the prescribed process and procedure, so carefully illustrated in C.G.S. Statutes Chapter 173 regarding School building projects, was being followed. At the end of the day, we must depend upon process and procedure as proscribed in the Connecticut General Statutes, along with the elected citizens exercising the "public trust' within their communities.
Of course, their action (BL Companies) is understandable considering their short history and desire to compete in their market segment; however such misrepresentation is inexcusable. One can only wonder how many other references on BL Companies web site reflect similar marketing exuberance and what effect such misrepresentation had on our BoE members in their deliberations and selection process by which BL Companies was subsequently choosen by the BoE.
I believe the BoE as a matter of policy should review the BL Companies references, in light of this misrepresentation with particular emphasis to the segment related to education projects, to ensure other misrepresentations did not impact or sway judgement of the BoE in their vetting and selection process. The gravity and impact of this biggest building project to come before the voters of New Fairfield demands such a review.
Regards,
Roger C. Wise
