Beach Citizens Plan Suit Against Four Councilors
A citizens group in Old Orchard Beach plans a suit against four town councilors and Acting Town Manager Jerome Plante for violating the right to know law. The group seeks to oust Plante and challenge his 15 000 dollar annual salary plus 2500 dollars in expenses. Portland attorney John Wuesthoff will study the case's viability for court. The group weighs criminal charges and fundraising for legal expenses as it recalls the four councilors. The recall matter and a pending Maine Supreme Court advisor be briefed.
