Skepticism about the New Appointment for Planning Director

July 28th, 2006

Gee, guess what, the readership of the Newburyport Political Blog is a tad skeptical about Ryan Christopher, Mayor John Moak’s choice for Newburyport’s new Planning Director.

Here’s one response that I think is worth passing on:

“I just wanted to comment about him (Ryan Christopher) being on his CPC committee (Community Preservation Committee) in Concord. This might not always be a good thing. Remember that Mayor Lavender put Norbert Carey on the CPC to stack the deck in favor of developers and those who were against the CPA. Before feeling to comfortable about this, I’d love to try to find out why he was appointed to the CPC and what his interests are….are they from a developers view?”

Lots of questions for the Newburyport City Council to consider.
