Even if I were not running for Town Council, I STILL wouldn’t vote for anyone that is involved in a cover-up. Our current town council, with the exception of Frank Wendell, all need to go.

One more time for the record: WHAT DIRECTION DO THE FRONT DOORS FACE?

After reading many articles in the Wave this one stands out the most! Joan Natalie & Chris Bannon are running again for their seats on Town Council. Voters will have the opportunity to make the decision whether to keep these two on Council or send them home.

The front door of CCHS faces south. I can’t imagine anyone believing otherwise. Just because you want it so doesn’t make it so. Of course one could always lift it up and turn it around to front on Madison? Makes as much sense as denying it fronts south.

Thank you Mr. Kaufman for the link to Echelon’s great photographs of the old school. It was very considerate of Echelon to provide additional evidence to support the inappropriate nature of the Conditional Use Permit and Certificate of Appropriateness issued by the [past and present] Town Planners. Thanks to Jersey Mike Kuzma for also reminding us of the United States Flag code — and of course the flagpoles are always in front. (I was one of the geeks in elementary school that had the honor of unfolding and raising the flag in the morning, and lowering and re-folding it in the evening.)

In their haste to put the deed for the school in a carpet bag and softly hand it over to a bunch of counterfeit circuit riders from Richmond, the Mayor and members of the previous Town Council’s disregard for the wishes, feelings, and well-being of the ordinary people may ultimately be their undoing.

I think, if someone looks at the original town layout it showed Park Row going all the way through to Plum Street. The building is on Park Row.

Something is really wrong in Cape Charles when the people elected won’t answer a simple question, and [their attorney] tells them not to. Perhaps it is time an outside investigation begin, to determine exactly what is going on in your beautiful town. I don’t live there, but it is sad to read the goings on with your council and how terrible they are treating those who do.

Here is Echelon’s answer to the question of the day:

“The building rests at the edge of a large public park; it is atypically-situated with its rear (north) and east side abutting the intersection, leaving its facade (south) and west side facing the park.”

Dictionary.com defines facade as: the front of a building, especially an imposing or decorative one.

Cape Charles being a small town did without many things, but the one thing we have always been proud of was being a part of that school. It heightens my pride to read the comments for the school — and by the way, Mayor, the door does face south.

I wonder if Mayor Sullivan knows what direction her house faces? Of course the front of the building faces south. What we have on our hands is 2 town managers, 2 clerks, way too many people working in the office, too much equipment, and too many people on the road crew. If the town had used the money they spent on lawyers, the money they used to buy the bank building, the money they are still spending on lawyers, etc., there could have been a lot of work done to the school. The fact is this town is spending money as though they were making the money at the town office. They have money for whatever they WANT, but no money for a community center. Anyone who was at the last meeting should be appalled at the way no one would answer a simple question.

I, too, as well as my brother, WK, and my sister, Nancy, and my Mother, Bootie, all attended Cape Charles High School from grades one through twelve — except my mother, I think she attended thru eleven; at that time you graduated. We all have many years of great memories there. The front door has always been on the south side of the building facing 23 Park Row. I agree with all above. A big shout out to Jack Willis & Charlene Brady too!
