Selectmen of Loudon Get Schooled on GSF

To the Editor:

What follows is a true New Hampshire story. It’s relevant if you live up north in Pittsburg, down south in Hollis, west in Claremont or east in Rye.

Last night the Selectmen of Loudon, NH asked me to come to one of their regular meetings. I don’t live in Loudon.

Months ago I authored a pamphlet titled Granite State Future – The Real Facts. It was given to the Loudon Selectmen a month ago and they wanted to know more about the topic. You can read the pamphlet here: http://go.timcarter.com/GSF

I walked into the meeting room and just three men were sitting at a standard folding cafeteria table passing letters to one another and then depositing them into a large plastic bin. It was a bureaucratic conveyor belt.

No one else was there, even though there were 40 soft chairs to sit in. No one. Not one Loudon citizen was in the room watching decisions being made. Not one citizen was there participating. Are you one of these people in your town?

After fifteen minutes, Mr. Krieger cordially asked me to approach the folding table and introduce myself for the record. They asked me to tell them about the Granite State Future. I did.

“Are you telling me you’ve not been contacted by Michael Tardiff, the executive director of the Central New Hampshire Regional Planning Commission about the Granite State Future,” I said.

“No we haven’t. We have NO CLUE what the Granite State Future is about.”

“Well, for starters you should go to GraniteStateFutures.org,” I suggested.

Wow. I almost fell over I was so shocked. I shouldn’t have been, because this is the same thing I’m encountering all over the state. Selectmen in countless NH towns have not heard about the Granite State Future, even though it’s been in motion since February, 2012.

On that dark day the nine NH regional planning commissions signed a legally binding contract with the Federal government mandating NH zoning and planning mirror what the Federal government wants, not what you or your Selectmen want.

Why didn’t Mr. Tardiff come to Loudon months ago before I showed up last night? That’s easy. The nine NH regional planning commissions don’t want you or your Selectmen to know what’s going on. They don’t want you to know they control every aspect of your life here in NH. They don’t want to remind any elected officials that they, the RPCs, are filled with unelected bureaucrats making critical decisions about every aspect of your life. It’s time for you to wake up.

The Food Police Are Coming

If you think the RPCs are just about sharing fire trucks and conserving land, you are quite mistaken.

Since Agenda 21 is all-encompassing, RPCs have branched out well beyond their purview into health, education, food, energy, transportation, communication, etc.

This is the kind of thing you will continue to see popping up in your child’s classroom:

How Could This Happen?

How Could This Happen?

While schools in the US are not charging parents for the extra food, (the above is a private facility that also has to follow government licensing guidelines) parents of children in US public schools have been reporting that their childrens’ lunches are being scrutinized and in some cases taken away. Instead, the children are given some other food as a ‘compliant meal’.

Clear Plan 2030

This video is of the Clear plan 2030 Alabama Anniston meeting on 11/18/13.

No matter where it rears its ugly head in America, the Agenda 21 plans are all the same in every state, as is the reaction to them by an awakened public.

The first woman to comment notes that their feedback is never recorded. And that the plan’s terminology and goals resemble something more like the Soviet Union.

She makes no bones about what these plans are about — SOCIALISM


Notice how few people are in attendance? Citizens better wake up and find out what these bureaucrats are doing without their permission.

Global Governance and Education

A few weeks ago, education guru Marc Tucker came to NH to speak to the legislature. We must not neglect to mention that the takeover of the system and brainwashing of students is but one essential piece of the plan for the progressive regionalization and eventual totalitarian restructuring of the country and the world.

Our take on the Marc Tucker speech in Concord last week…

While many of our colleagues are to be commended for doing their best to expose Common Core “standards” as inferior, we say, to even discuss the program as if it had anything to do with academic “standards” is to give CC a legitimacy it does not deserve.

There are no academic “standards” involved in CC or any of the other federal programs that have been handed down over the years on the advice of illegal and unqualified representatives of special interest groups like Marc Tucker’s.

While Tucker sought to pump the maximum fear into parents — that if Common Core were not adopted, their children would not be able to ‘compete globally’ — keep in mind that not one of these educrats from the education industry or their local mouthpieces have ever been able to define the term “compete globally”. Common sense would tell you that to compete anywhere, you simply need to know your subject areas, whether it be math, languages, or the sciences. But there is no common sense in Common Core. It is merely a way to infuse the collectivist mindset of the state upon the children and to prepare them for the global utopia envisioned and dreamed of by these auxiliary elites. Numerous examples can be seen just about anywhere, for example, in any school exercise — most recently we saw one that suggested obeisance to the state, and the tromping of individual rights for the “collective” — both presented as fact — and matter-of-factly in a lesson about apostrophes.

After what we have seen done to children in the public schools for the last 35 years, here is our advice: parents need to march down to their nearest local school board and demand that all political agendas be scrubbed from the curriculum, and teachers be put back in charge of teaching a course of academics with a solid scope and sequence that does not include the fear mongering by the extreme-left, anti-constitutional, political “change agents” and proponents of international rule.

Notice to the criminals who have illegally seized our educational system and are using our children for political mules — the gloves are off and we are coming after you.

On Marc Tucker’s Credibility by Sandra Stotsky

Seven50 Beaten Down to Five50

The Port St. Lucie county commissioners wisely voted to reject the Seven50 Plan for their area in Florida. This is the second time the plan has been rejected, bringing it down to just five counties to be conquered by the regionalists.

Rosa Koire, author of “Behind the Green Mask – UN Agenda 21” and founder of the Post Sustainability Institute gave a talk on what regionalism is all about. It is not different from what is going on in NH with Granite State Future, or in any other states.

She talks about how the American Planning Association (NGO) was given a grant to write a book about the plan for ‘change’. The book was published in 2002 and so it began, the new urbanism movement hit America.

Indian River County had already rejected it, now it’s on to Martin County!

Public Participation at RPC Meetings Weak

Linked below is a PDF of two action items brought before the Strafford Regional Planning Commission (SRPC).

SRPC Public Comments 2013

Here is a list of acronyms to help you understand the content:

SMPO: Strafford Metropolitan planning organization: the SMPO is an area designated as a transportation planning region. It’s boundaries are set by population and are required by the Federal Highway Act.

GIS: Geographic Information System: This is the nomenclature given to a layered computer database of area infrastructure.

CMAQ: Congestion Mitigation Air Quality: this is a funding source from the federal government that is appropriated for transportation projects that reduce pollution.

TIP: Transportation Improvement Plan; Amendments are triggered when there is a change to an existing transportation project. Each must go through a public comment period of 30 days and be voted on by the Commissions policy committee.

NHDES: New Hampshire Environmental Services

Federal Highway Act: The congressional act that supports transportation infrastructure.

Title VI. Civil Rights Act: Added to the transportation act to incorporate social and environmental justice to aid in a fair and equitable inclusion of underserved populations regarding transportation project.

The public comments section on page 3 lists the comments received by the public. There were only two respondents. One is the NHDES representative on the SMPO and the other is a SRPC member town commissioner. We don’t consider this adequate public comment as required by the Federal Requirement for fairness and equity under the Federal Highway Act and Title 6.

This is not a ‘consensus’ of the people by any stretch.

And so it goes… same for the listening sessions and charettes, more often they are attended by the very members of the boards and commissions themselves or, their paid facilitators.

Regional Planners Branching Out to Mental Health

Posted by NH Listens: (see new URL on our “About” page for all NH Listens content)

We are so looking forward to the conversation tomorrow evening. Thank you to the over 400 granite staters who are registered to attend…

http://www.nhlistens.org/events/behavioral-health

400 people? We hope that’s because they want to question what business these unelected regional planning commissions have to do with this subject?

Since when does a regional planning commission have anything to do with YOUR MENTAL HEALTH?

Bedford Zoning Decisions in Jeopardy

Bedford rejected a warrant article to allow its Town Councilors to approve zoning without public vote in 2010.

This attempt must be defeated once again. If the Council can approve zoning decisions and changes without a public vote, this means that zoning changes recommended by the Regional Planning Commissions due to their HUD grants could be implemented with absolutely ZERO approval by the people.

This must not happen in Bedford or anywhere else.

Bedford voters may be asked to let council decide zoning

By SUSAN CLARK
Union Leader Correspondent

BEDFORD — Voters may be asked to allow the Town Council to rule on which zoning amendments will become town law in the future, without amendment proposals going on the ballot.

The change in the zoning ordinance process was first brought to voters in March 2010 but was rejected. That proposal had been recommended by the town’s Economic Development Committee in 2009. If the Town Council and the Planning Board agree to put a similar zoning amendment on the March 2014 ballot, voters would be asked to authorize the Town Council to approve future zoning amendments, which is within the council’s purview under state law and the Bedford Town Charter, said Town Manager Jessie Levine.
