Treated Like Royalty
The pro-township forces keep telling me that township government is important because it’s the government closest to the people. Maybe someone should tell that to the Franklin Township Trustee Terry Royalty. I’m told he’s been on vacation in Florida since October and apparently this tends to be an annual trip.
Now I should be surprised, but I’m not. I’m also told right after he got elected, he went to the township advisory board for a raise.
Now I don’t know about you, but if someone was trying to eliminate my job, saying it was inefficient and it could be done better at the County level, I don’t know if I’d be down south relaxing four months out of the year and proving their point.
But who knows, maybe one day the voters or government reform will send Terry on a permanent vacation.
UPDATE: I just got a call from Royalty telling me that he was on vacation but is back. He says he never goes on vacation for months at a time.
