Nancy Reed, Republican
Declaring "it's time for a change"
in the township clerk's office, Reed
bases her campaign mainly on criti-
cism of Law. She claims Law has a
poor office attendance record ... is
not preparing the minutes of meet-
ings on time despite having a staff of
16 ... is not recusing herself from
voting on matters before the
Wetlands Board" chaired by her hus-
band ... and that she "mishandled
the 2002 elections," thus hampering
a recount.
Law replied she's often "beeped"
into the inner clerk office by
employees, making it unnecessary to
use her own identification card (and
recording her attendance)... the staff
must prepare minutes for about five
meetings a week of various boards,
and the Township Board of Trustees
meeting minutes are always done on
time ... Municipal Attorney Bill
Hampton ruled recently she can cast
votes on Wetlands Board matters ...
and Law quoted from a "to whom it
may concern" letter from Oakland
County Clerk G. William Caddell
absolving her of any blame in the
2002 election situation. The letter
stated the "State Election Bureau
arbitrarily changed the rules" at the
last minute on sealing ballot boxes
" without notifying her."
