Happy 10th Anniversary To J&B Auto Sales Of Northwood LLC

Northwood J&B.JPG

The Gardner family at J&B Auto Sales welcomes you to their upcoming anniversary event.

 

Brian Gardner started buying and selling cars on his front lawn before he even had his driver’s license 20 years ago. He began the current business in 2002 by renting the property where he now is, and purchased it in 2004. J&B Auto (which stood for previous owners Jim and Beth) now stands for Brian and his wife Jennifer.

 

The first 5 years he concentrated on buying cars to get a good inventory. He added a quality mechanic and added the trade name "J&B Auto Sales and Repair" to reach out to the public for inspections and oil changes. Another big change for the Gardners was living in the apartment located at the property, while their dream house was being built on the area of land that extends onto Lakeshore Drive. The family was growing just as fast as the business. Brian and Jen have three children: Dylan 10 years old, Trevor 8, and Serena 3.

 

The next 5 years the business exploded in many directions. They added classic cars, motorcycles, four wheelers, and golf carts to their sales inventory and offered financing options to potential purchasers. They now have a full service mechanic shop, 24 hour towing and a loaner car available. They are a U-Haul dealer and do everything from tires and alignments to bed liners and hitches.

 


 

Northwood Town Reports

 

With the change this year from traditional town and school district annual meetings to SB2, a large number of annual town reports are still available. If you did not pick one up when you went to vote this year or are a summer resident who never received one, please pick up a copy at the town hall or Chesley Memorial Library.

 

There is a lot of information about the town and school district including board and committee reports, financial reports, facts about town assets and property, and some great artwork and photos submitted by Coe Brown Academy students. There is no charge for the reports and they are available to pick up during regular business hours.

 

The Gardner family and all their employees would like to invite everyone to stop by, look around and share this special anniversary on Saturday, June 30th. They will have a hot dog ready with your name on it. They wish to thank all the faithful patrons over the years, thank God for being there every step of the way, and look forward to the next 10 years and beyond.

Are you ready for the onslaught of political advertising about to descend on us?

 

Do you, like the majority of Americans, feel uncomfortable about all the money in our elections, especially because we don’t know where it’s coming from? Do you wonder, as you shop, if your purchase of this roll of paper towels will end up funding ads that will encourage us to vote against our own best interests?

 

Are you not even quite sure what our "best interests" are anymore?

 

That’s a lot of questions. Our job as voters is to do our best to find out the answers before we vote. One way that I do that is to follow the work of the Coalition for Open Democracy http://www.coalitionforopendemocracy.org/, the organization that carries on the work of our own Doris "Granny D" Haddock. I also find out some sources of a candidate’s campaign funding at Open Secrets, http://www.opensecrets.org/. In NH candidates are supposed to report their contributions and expenditures to the Secretary of State, http://cfs.sos.nh.gov/cfs/public/default.aspx. But that’s hardly the whole story.

 

The elephant in the room of campaign finance is the Supreme Court decision from early 2010 that we refer to as "Citizens United." I love this movie about that decision: http://www.storyofstuff.org/movies-all/story-of-citizens-united-v-fec/.

 

We need to ask ourselves, especially given the recent coverage of the enormous rise in income inequality over recent decades (view slate.com article), if this decision is really good for our democracy.

Letter

 

The NH Legislature tried to get rid of RGGI (the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative) last year, and this year. RGGI is a regional market-based program to reduce carbon emissions at the lowest cost. The bills to get rid of RGGI were crafted by out of state interests in conjunction with libertarian and conservative NH legislators. As Free State Rep Andrew Manuse, who apparently is a climate change expert, summarized for them: "The reasons used to promote RGGI were based on false, exaggerated and highly politicized science…. there is no scientific evidence to support the idea that RGGI does anything to solve this alleged problem."

 

The bill that came forward last year passed the House and Senate, but was vetoed by Governor Lynch, and the veto was sustained. A pile of legislators tried to stop RGGI again this year. The most recent version of the bill, which passed in early June doesn’t eliminate the program, but provides a clear path for New Hampshire to get out of it. If the Governor vetoes it, that veto may be overridden this time.

 

Two days before the recent bill passed, RGGI’s program administrator released a report that said after 3 years, average carbon dioxide emissions in the 10-state region have fallen by 23%. And a recent report by the Analysis Group in Boston found that RGGI had generated $17 million in value for NH’s economy, and created 458 jobs here.

 

This entire roller coaster with RGGI in the Legislature speaks volumes about how distorted New Hampshire politics has gotten over the past two years. Bad science, bad economics, and ironically, significant grabs to control NH’s future, in the name of liberty. I’m hoping that Rep. Manuse’s departure from the Legislature symbolizes that this era is fading. But keep your eyes open.
