Let me unspin this for you: the council unanimously rejected a complaint filed by a personal friend of Reyering's, one who has filed complaints against fellow citizens before. The complaint was in no way supported by the language in the code, was thus frivolous, and obviously motivated by a desire for personal revenge, attempting to use our volunteer town government as the weapon. The tactic didn't work this time, and no similar attack will work in the future. Our volunteers are way too smart for such a simple-minded and childish trick.

Why am I not surprised the N R was involved somewhere in this.
