We are an informal group of citizens united in holding City Officials accountable for their actions. All residents of Centerville are welcome to speak out and be heard here. Centerville consistently ranks in the top three highest taxed cities in Minnesota, there is no dedicated road maintenance fund and the assessments keep coming! “I don’t think there’s any way we could ever budget enough to not assess people for improvements.” Council Member Jeff Paar.

"SLAPPs have been directed against individuals and groups that have spoken in public forums on a wide variety of issues, particularly against real estate development, the actions of public officials, environmental damage or pollution, and unwanted land use."
CLASSIC! This describes exactly the senior citizen in question!
Love the end of the article.
"The Minnesota Citizens Participation Bill of 1994 (Minn. Stat. § 554.01-05), for example, protects public participation by requiring a court to dismiss a SLAPP unless the filer can prove that the target's activities were not directed toward producing government action. The law also shifts the burden of proof to the SLAPP filer and allows the SLAPP target to collect attorneys' fees, costs, and damages if the SLAPP is unsuccessful."
Someone needs to call the ALCU!
Can't wait for that state audit!
