Neighbor Feedback Ain't Pretty

Our posts on Chairman Steve Bukont have struck a chord as evidenced by this comment. In an effort to make sure it is well read, here is the anonymous post received today repeated and verbatim:

Dear Mayor Seeman:

A few questions for you:

- Why does the Town of Vienna allow resident Steve Bukont to operate his two multi-million dollar construction companies, Ayr Hill Homes and BFR Construction, out of his home in a residential neighborhood in violation of Town Home Occupancy Permit Regulations? We would be happy to enumerate and document these violations here on this website, incuding video of his clients, employees, and subcontractors visiting his home businesses throughout the day, week after week, without appointment; and his distributed storage of construction equipment and materials throughout the neighborhoods on residential properties he controls but which are not under development.

- Why has the Town of Vienna enlisted Steve Bukont (is he a licensed architect in the state of Virginia?) who is reknown for over-the-top "flights of fancy", to define the reconstuction of our Town center? Do Town residents really want their Town center to become a creeping Bukontville of pedestrian unfriendly, high-maintenance, fake Victorian, 'what is that for?' storefronts?

- Why has the Town of Vienna appointed Steve Bukont to chair a town board presiding over Town development and contruction regulation despite the obvious conflicts of interest with his private construction business activity within the Town and the now well-known fact that Steve Bukont is emotionally ill-equipped for public service?

- How many Town employees including close relatives such as [edit], have purchased a home from Steve Bukont or have had private business dealings with his companies?

- The Town is destined for long-term redevelopment. When will the Town establish and enforce firm, fair, and clear regulations to manage this growth, and not leave it to the subjective sentimental longing of a few for all things old and Victorian, and to whichever developer or applicant who has the most friends in the Town government or lays claim to the most Town boards?

- Do you intend to post Town police in Town meetings to intimidate legitimate free speech by Town residents, and will that matter here?

Feel free to post your reply here on this website or in the Town Newsletter.
