Looks like the Pittsfield Township officials just put a noose around their own necks. In spite of their anti-development platform that got them in office in the first place, they have now run to developers (and those outside the township I might add) looking for support. Of the more than $20,000 they have collected to defend themselves in this recall, only $230 have come from supporters who live in Pittsfield. The bulk has come from Laurence Deitch (UofM Regent) and his cronies over in Bloomfield Hills.
But don't take my word for it. Check out the links at
http://www.anewpittsfield.org that lead you to the PAC info. This is all public record. By comparison, you will notice that all financial contributors of the recall effort are residents of Pittsfield.
