Mr. Trapp’s opponents in the upcoming election need not enter the negative campaigning arena. Why, you ask, since pointing out an opponent’s shortcomings is usually part of any political campaign? Truth is: Mr. Trapp has placed his own shortcomings in front of the public time and time again. The most recent statement is that someone […]
Better Suggestion

We are a government of the people, with representatives elected by the people, who are elected to serve the people. As representatives of the people we are required to be respectful to those who elected us to serve. We must be honest, humble and most of all not arrogant and self-serving. We are elected to […]
Better Leadership

Tis the season when all should be at peace and harmony! Yet, it appears this season has yet to come in Fairfield County. Racism from the halls of the old County Council members still screams out loud! Victimless victims abound! When will it end? I hope this March 3 we will have an African-American who certainly […]
FOIA Paranoia

I consider myself an independent and not a member of any political party or group. I have only attended a handful of County Council meetings in the past, but the events of the last Council meeting have stirred me to action. I have chosen to make it a mission to archive as many past and […]

How long will the good and decent people of Fairfield County allow the ugly faces of racism, greed and power cripple our county? How long will we allow hatred, vicious lies, delusional opinions and intentional deceit destroy the very hearts and souls of a people whose roots run deep with kinships, communities, churches and schools […]

The recent (Jan. 22) Voice editorial “Who Knew?” underscored one of many concerns about the Fairfield County Recreation plan. The Ridgeway Town Council is spot-on in its opposition to the ill-conceived proposed location of the Ridgeway facility. Other previously expressed citizen concerns with the general County Recreation Plan include having a plan which starts out over […]
An Apology

As an American, I apologize to the marchers in France and to the rest of the world for America’s lack of participation in the Unity March to support free speech and to show the global terrorists that their way of life is not acceptable to the rest of the world. Our President should have been […]
Who Knew?

If there is one thing to which the old cliché “It was in all the papers” aptly applies, it is Fairfield County’s recreation debate and its long-awaited plan, revealed last September, to spend $500,000 in each of its seven voting districts. That Ridgeway Town Council was surprised last month to learn that the plan for […]

Mikel Trapp claims personal credit for donations to churches and donated supplies for school students. The truth is that the taxpayers in Fairfield County paid these expenses. There is no such thing as a ‘Saving Fairfield Tea Party Republication Candidate’ in Fairfield County! Ask Tangee Brice Jacobs and Col. Walter Stewart their affiliation with a […]
