Had a meeting with our new first selectman [previous one won a state-wide office and vacated] today.
We discussed the permit application process.
He was very interested in the prior BFPE decision regarding what the BFPE considers to be mandatory to be answered on their Questionnaire and what the BFPE decided was not mandatory but optional to be completed. And taking their decision and applying it to the goofy DPS application form.
I also reviewed about 200-300 applications that resulted in applications being approved and noted where "blanks" on the forms ... asking the selectman if the blanked areas were considered not to be mandatory by the town. Many had no employer listed, some had the race section left black. Some had double checks answering both yes and no to several yes/no sections' queries.
A cornucopia of what I considered to be contrary to what testimony was given at my last 2012 BFPE hearing by the town employee that testified against me.
My goal today was to push the selectman to tell me (and other town residents) what the town considers to be mandatory to be completed and what sections, if not completed, would have no affect on the application.
