To the Editor:
We've never made a secret of our close, personal friendship with Howard & Debbie Protter. We're privileged.
We've also let it be known that Howard is our attorney. We're fortunate.
Now we learn that Howie, who used to act as Cornwall-on-Hudson Village Attorney - before being fired by Mayor Joe Gross - has been acknowledged by the NYS Bar Association and named to head its Municipal Law Section.
But we in the Village aren't so fortunate, because Howard Protter's expertise in municipal law is lost to us because of Joe's pettiness (no one connected with the former administration would work for him if he could help it).
So now, an attorney and Village resident, recognized for his knowledge, works for several other communities, but not ours.
Sad.

Nancy -
Are the archives available for people to see? This is an election time - While these posts may seem like needless bickering, a lot of the information was actually relevant.
I urge people who "lurk" on this website, yet choose not to post, to read the comments - Even if it takes effort ... What you see here is a reflection of the Village of itself, as well as the play out of the dealings that happen in the background ... If things seem like bickering, it is because that is how things are actually hashed out a lot of time in the background of issues
