Three cheers for Irene and her campaign to stop the merger of Essex Jct. and Essex Town. As a 50 year resident of the village, I am a veteran of numerous separation/ merger votes. The only one which was real conclusive was the last vote to separate the village from the town. It passed by a large margin but failed to reach completion because our legislature, in their infinite wisdom (not) refused to act on the charter change
