Tonight broke something in me that I didnโt expect.I walked into that meeting prepared, calm, and ready to use my twoโminute public presentation โ the same two minutes every citizen is allowed โ to explain why the denial of my license was based on a completely wrong reading of Chapter 125. I was doing exactly what the process allows.
But the moment I mentioned the Village Clerk posting about my business under fake Facebook accounts, everything changed. I was cut off, yelled at, and told I was โout of order.โ My two minutes were taken away the second the truth became uncomfortable for them.
And then we moved into the denial discussion, where they continued insisting that every LLC member must โqualify,โ even though the law clearly says only the agent must qualify. Members are disclosed, not judged. Itโs right there in the statute, but they refuse to read it.I left that meeting feeling defeated, disrespected, and honestly heartbroken. Iโm tired of fighting a village that should be supporting small businesses, not tearing them down. Iโm tired of
Iโm tired of being treated like the problem when all Iโm doing is asking them to follow the law.
But Iโm not giving up. I canโt. Iโve come too far, and the truth matters too much.
