This is old news. Most fines were dropped. Only one remained about blocking sidewalk which the mom agreed to pay. Turns out the uncle if the girls scout was on the town board and brought up the incident on agenda at a meeting. They said oh we thought you were on only child. We didn’t know you had a sister.

Most fines were dropped, but one remained and the legal bill outweighed the fines.

That many council members didn’t know that the man had a sister shows that many council members aren’t locals, but the result of the town growth over the last 40 years.

Where I live, only locals will be voted onto council. To be local, you need at least one set of grandparents buried within the township (this is more liberal than the traditional line, which would expect all four, but might tolerate three).

Given that environment, unless you are not a local, family connections can be taken as known.
