Mr. Spruill said he made his presentation on Tuesday night in closed session with the Portsmouth City Council. He said the Portsmouth City Manager, Jim Oliver apologized for the article. The presentation was well received and he felt the outcome was that two City Councilman were for his project, two were clearly against it and three were not sure. By the way, Covanta was heard in closed session soon after Mr. Spruill was finished. I agree with you vdogg that this article is more than just underhanded and I would bet that the Pilot will say no more about this to correct this situation. I feel sorry for Meghan Hoyer. She is so young and pretty. She has no idea how she is being manipulated. She represents Portsmouth on the Pilot staff. She probably would never reveal her source for this article.
