People don’t sit around waiting for notices to schedule their time and many work full­time as well as have other obligations.  I’m very disappointed that the owner was not verified.  His name is Richard Harrigan.  The town should be privy to these records.   I have copied him on this email and hope that you would reach out to him with an apology and perhaps recognize that this appeal my need to be rescheduled to give him appropriate time to prepare.   Regards,         Mary Ellen   Mary Ellen Goodwin Human Resources Representative Gosnold, Inc. http://gosnold.org/ megoodwin@gosnold.org Phone: (508) 540­6550, Ext 5009 Fax: (508) 495­9871       The information transmitted in this electronic communication is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material. Any review, retransmission, dissemination or other use of or taking of any action in reliance upon this information by persons or entities other than the intended recipient is prohibited. If you received this information in error, please contact the sender immediately and properly dispose of this information.     CAUTION:This email originated from outside of the Town of Barnstable! Do not click links, open attachments or reply, unless you recognize the sender's email address and know the content is safe!
