NEW GLOUCESTER — Selectboard members Karen Gilles, Linda Chase, Tammy Donovan and Peter Bragdon call Selectman George Colby’s comment from a Dec. 3 meeting “offensive and inappropriate.”
“Let us be unequivocally clear: we do not condone, agree with or endorse the comments made on December 3rd by Selectman Colby,” the members said in a Dec. 19 statement posted to the town’s website. “Rather, we condemn them. They do not represent our beliefs, nor do they represent the beliefs of our Town, our citizens and our employees.”
