    A divided Idyllwild Fire Protection District (IFPD) commission selected President Pete Capparelli to fulfill the final two years of former Commissioner Ben Killingsworth’s term.

    Opinion: Half truths have no value

    By November 8, 2011 Reading Time: 1 minute

    I have just one thought after reading the letter titled “Who is Community Center for?” in the Nov. 3 edition of the Town Crier. There is a story of a woman who went to her priest to confess that she had spread rumors about another individual and asked for forgiveness. The priest handed her a…

    Opinion: Publishing rants is not free speech

    By November 8, 2011 Reading Time: 1 minute

    I must speak out against the recent accusatory ranting recently published in the opinion and letters section of the Town Crier. It is inconceivable to me that a newspaper would allow such personal attacks impugning the character and reputation of those who are trying to serve this community to be printed. This is wrong. It…

    Opinion: What’s going on with recreation?

    By November 8, 2011November 8, 2011 Reading Time: 2 minutes

I have only met Jeff Smith once, and that was at the County Service Area (CSA) 36 advisory committee meeting when he threatened…

    Opinion: Occupied!

    By November 8, 2011 Reading Time: 2 minutes

    I’m glad to see the Idyllwild knob turned to red. Some years ago, our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. But experience hath shown, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in…

    Fire and Forest: Fewer dollars …

    ByMichael Esnard November 8, 2011January 25, 2013 Reading Time: 3 minutes

    What will happen to federal support for homeowner fire abatement? Judging from the words of U.S. Forest Service’s Director of Fire and Aviation Management Tom Harbour at a fire prevention conference last week, we should not expect much in the future. Last week, a bunch of us from the Mountain Communities Fire Safe Council traveled…
