Is Kristen LeBlanc proposing civic "voyeurism" in Campton Hills?

What is up with the obsession of Kristin Leblanc to videotape others?

When we decided to start this blog, the first thing that we learned was that there is a lot of bad information out there, and we should always do our research. (Thanks, Kristin!!!)  So when our friends over at opposecamptonhills told us that Chuck Norris (who is NOT a big fan of LeBlanc) wanted the Village of Campton Hills to record and/or televise their village board meetings, we decided to do some local research.  We have been to lots of these public meetings, and, if you took a survey of the ten to fifteen residents that actually attend the meetings, we believe that most would tell you they are pretty dull.  Nonetheless, our love for Chuck Norris inspired us to spend some time on the Village websites of neighboring Elburn, Geneva, Saint Charles, South Elgin, and Naperville (because Chuck Norris really likes that place) to see whether their televised meetings were "Must See TV".   Imagine our surprise when (with the exception of Geneva) we could not find ANY video or video links to these meetings.  Elburn, Saint Charles, South Elgin, and Naperville do not film their Board meetings, apparently. 

But this is about more than just bashing the Village's lack of filming, this is about electing Kristen, the Queen of Battery Operated Transparency!   So we bolted over to Fox Mill's community website to view Kristen (Fox Mill's gift to Campton Hills) in all of her videotaped HOA Presidential glory..... Um.  Nothing.  The Fox Mill HOA does not televise its board meetings either. 

So how exactly does voting for Kristen solve this video "problem" tormenting Campton Hills?  Chuck Norris is scratching his head.....

ONCE AGAIN (and we do mean AGAIN, because this is the same old recycled stuff), the anti-Village people are all bitch over substance.  Village Board meetings are all public meetings, held at fairly regular times and locations throughout the year.  Agendas for the meetings are posted in advance of the meetings.  The public is invited to attend.   The public can even  RECORD the meetings if they so desire.  So here is a thought.... Since our friends over at opposecamptonhills are feeling deprived of their right to sit at a computer screen and eat fried chicken and/or popcorn in their pajamas while enjoying the suspense and good humor of a Village Board meeting, maybe they should draw straws and the loser can attend a meeting and video tape it.  THEN, this fine anti-Villager can post the meeting on their insanely popular website.  After all, with all of the pretty colors and diverse font usage, we are guessing the opposecampton site gets a few more hits than the Village's website. 

We are guessing that this will not happen, though.  The Anti-Village folk thrive on negativity and complaining.  Like their proposed candidate (e.g., Kristen), they offer NOTHING by way of solutions, they just want to destroy the Village.
