They have stooped to an all time low, together in corruption and
disgrace. I am sure the meeting is not going to be recorded. The station
always airs a message for a least an hour prior- always by 6pm that
there is a City Council Meeting that evening. By 6:30 the message was
not appearing and the 9/2 meeting was airing- just starting. I called
the Ned, he tapes the meetings. I've known him since we were teens in
Bayside. I called from my land line- so he knew it was me calling. He
didn't answer. I left a message that I was concerned the meeting was not
going to be taped and to call me back. He didn't. I went to the meeting
15 minutes before the meeting was starting and No Ned. I asked Mayor
Ash and City Manager Joe Slocum why wasn't Ned here. He was always there
by 6:30 - never this late- it was 6:47. I told them if Ned was not
recording this meeting that I'd be back at the next meeting to say the
same thing. They knew what I was going to reveal publicly.
Long time, honorable, kind and no non-sense, Belfast City Hall
Treasurer, Rickie LaSan was present for my discussion before the
meeting. Because she was there, Mayor Ash and City Manager Joe Slocum
could not ignore my questions. That is why Joe called Ned, otherwise he
would have let the meeting go unrecorded. I told them it was wrong that
City Manager Joe Slocum told City Council during communications in the
last meeting, 9/2 that he was having a meeting with Seaview Terrace
residents to discuss options on 9/3. I had just spoken at that 9/2
meeting, and this was the first I had heard about this meeting. I came home from that meeting and checked with my immediate neighbors- they did not get any notification of a meeting. I sent an email that night to City Council and City Manager stating that we did not know about any meeting. They never responded.

To All,
I checked with a few
neighbors- we did not receive any notification of any meeting for
Seaview Terrace in City Hall with Joe Slocum tomorrow. Slocum and Hurley
are a danger to residents. We didn't do this to Seaview, the City did.
Hurley threatening us is serious.
You are planning to send me MORE water and I will fight this until. It makes all of Seaview Terrace upset. How can you sleep?
Will Council be voting on the options, if so when?
Sincerely,
Laurie Allen
***************************************************************
Four
years I have worked relentlessly to save Seaview Terrace and the on the
table was the corrupt paving and more drainage to my private property
was their plan and they kept me out of the crucial meeting with a few
chosen neighbors. And then sent in the trucks to illegally flood my
property even more, As I mourning the death of my brother. How much can I
take?
City Manager Joe Slocum stating the letters were sent, I persisted- who
was at this meeting that voted to send me more illegal water. The
neighbors that were there were not getting the water sent to them. They
do not reside in the flat section of Seaview where the roadside water is
a pond. That is the water that the City intends to channel to me. That
meeting was a total farce, implicating more neighbors against me. Weeks
before, Councilor Hurley went at me again. Stating he was against a
neighborhood meeting because I would "dominate the meeting just as I
have for 4 years." They choreographed this deceptive neighborhood
meeting just like the one 3 years prior. City Hall refused to put us on a
recorded agenda then and now because of illegal City Hall force
flooding.
After my speech, in communications, City Council Hurley, Hamilton,
Sanders and Mayor Ash unite to support their calculated cruelty and
corruption, Hamilton defending the corrupt maps, knowing full well that
stream was purposely shown NOT to be on my property. All of them know.
That is what this has been all about for FOUR YEARS. City Hall forcing
water to my private property. How they keep lying is astounding. Just
like all the corrupt governments. Except on this level, it is very
personal and very evil as they take the true down.
I was so distraught, I completely forgot to state the email I
sent to them the night before the unknown meeting. Mayor Ash has the
gall to tell me in this meeting that I am wrong- I have been working for
Seaview Terrace infrastructure for 4 years and I would chose not to
come to this meeting for Seaview Terrace Infrastructure. Excuse me, but
what assholes.
At this 9/16/14 meeting, Mayor Ash stating he made sure to see letters
were mailed out because he "figured it might be an issue and what she
(me) said tonight was wrong." Hello- what did you say Walter???
Councilor Hurley debating on allowing my public speaking with other
private citizens. Totally unethical and they do it ALL the time. Pitting
the public against me on the streets, in the media, at the meetings,
certainly behind the wall that I have no admittance to. All the
connected, all the players including the Chamber of Commerce and many
businesses. Hurley stating that from here on, I will be held to the 3
minute rule. He callously states that he made sure to time me on his
phone as I spoke for 5 minutes, choking back tears as I inform the
public of real time resident abuse and property slaughter. They states
he was sorry to hear about my brother for the first time after I sent an
email. They knew it days before that email- that is why the sent the
trucks in. the day before this meeting. City Hall must apply that rule
to ALL open to the public speakers, they have not done that previously. I
am singled out and harassed. Right in public. There are many watching
and many very upset by their treatment to me. It will bite them back. It
always does. Truth always prevails no matter how long it takes. Along
this trail of evil, I get stronger and truer. I am at peace with myself,
thankful that I didn't choose to sell myself out. Now I can cruise the
honest path no matter the corruption they catapult. The flood will come.
.
Back to minutes before the meeting. Rickie stated the meeting would be
taped- but as the minutes were ticking by- she was seeing no action from
City Manager Slocum. I kept asking and Slocum was forced to call Ned.
Ned lives down the road from City Hall. He came in a few minutes before
the meeting was starting at 7 and it was easy to see he was told not to
tape this meeting. His clothes were dirty and his demeanor towards me
was to ignore me. I was right next to the podium as he came over to turn
on the microphone. He didn't say hello and definitely was not offering
any information as to why he didn't answer his cell phone when I called
him 40 minutes earlier. That is the fallout of corruption. Those who
know me well, they know I have always spoke up against wrong doing, have
become implicated by City Hall in one way or another. I was friends
with many in their web pre- Belfast. Now, I am treated like an
infectious disease. Fine with me, they are the ones infected. It is true
freedom to hold my head high and speak truth. No one can buy that,
nothing is better.
At the last meeting, I offered Ned another olive branch with an old
family picture of his kids. I established friendship with him again.
This meeting splintered that. But I maintained civility and kindness. I
said hello and asked him if he was taping the meeting and he said it
looks that way. I tried to make him laugh, I told him I brought my
camcorder to tape myself in case he was not. He did not laugh. I taped
myself anyway, just in case there was a "malfunction". It has happened
before on critical meetings that I addressed and allows them to spin
"paranoid, crazy Laurie".
City Planner, Wayne Marshall, the true consistent danger, weaves in and
out of the proposed zoning of Seaview Terrace to R1. More to write on
this, have to take my dogs out.
City Hall Officials lie and lie, always covering for each other. Last
night made them even look worse. If nothing else, all I have exposed has
open up the residents eyes. When the corruption hits their
neighborhood, they will not give the benefit of the doubt. They will
know.
I keep thinking that Councilor Roger Lee came over to my house was to find a reason to sue me.
I hope I'm wrong -I really don't want to think he would do that. But
after those trucks rolled in when they thought I'd be in Alabama at my
brothers funeral , I don't know. That would be quite the story, suing me
on top of all they have done. Should I have washed their feet at this
meeting?
UPDATE
10/3-Here is another email that I sent to the engineer when I saw the
corrupt maps by luck posted online only by the local paper. The printed
version did not show the maps and those maps were not sent in the option
packets sent by the City Manager Joe Slocum to Seaview Terrace
residents. Total scam. There is so much more, but it is so cruel. I
can't write it all. The meetings tell it all- for 4 years they wait to
pounce rather than to save. Putin under City Hall cover.

Later that evening on 9/4, I would learn of my brother's
death. The next day, 9/5 was when I told Belfast PD Greg Strearns,
school resource officer and buddy of Mike Hurley. I knew it City Hall
would know that day, I never thought they would use my brother's death
to send in the trucks that Monday when they thought I'd be in Alabama.
At this time, I did not know they had a meeting with some neighbors on
9/3 and were moving ahead with force to get the illegal option done
before I knew what was happening. Boy did they. I still can't recover
from this, doubt I ever will, it is that hurtful. To know they knew,
took advantage and then furthered the abuse to me at the 9/16/14
meeting.
Belfast City Councilor Mike
Hurley promotes forced water slaughter to residents private property.
Fabricating a mythical stream as a sound reason to drown and destroy,
the flood plain, flood zone of Seaview Terrace on all 3 sides. City
Council, Mayor, City Manager and City Planner support slaughter. Here's
Johnny- Belfast is his stage, Seaview Terrace his reality victim unable
to escape out the bathroom window.
Below is the local ordinance that City Hall uses as a reason to slaughter us. Hiding all documents that prove there is not a "natural outlet" running through our private property. Sick officials. I prevailed and nailed the original development plans. A ditch ran through here- probably dug in the early 60's to take the runoff off from the newly constructed Route 1 bypass. Before that, Seaview Terrace was an apple orchard.Sec. 62-192. - Permitted discharge of unpolluted water.
