TH E TOWN COUNCIL RAISED THE FUNDS TO PAY ATTORNEY FEES FROM GENEROUS CONTRIBUTIONS FROM WITHIN AND OUTSIDE OUR COMMUNITY. IN 2020 AN APPEALS COURT UPHELD THAT VERDICT. THIS WIN BENEFITED THE SEVERAL THOUSAND PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THE COMMUNITY AND THE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO COME TO OUR COMMUNITY EACH YEAR TO WALK AND RIDE HORSES ON OUR COMMUNITY TRAILS. EXPENSE AMOUNT REPORTED HERE EXCLUDES PRIOR YEAR LEGAL FEES THAT WERE REFUNDED. | $7,370 |
