"The problem stems from the irrefutable insubordination of the organization’s former president. We said NO to the addition of the new piece of equipment on the property and the County, to which we intend to convey the property, agreed with us. The organization’s former president apparently decided that he was going to do what he wants anyway. It’s not a petty issue. We manage quite a bit of municipally owned property. Imagine the chaos if all of our licensees and tenants did what they want regardless of the terms of their agreements or our policies and rules."
There's a lot about this that we do not know, and, perhaps do not want to know. This is one of those issues that I would need to hear both sides of the situation, clearly and completely, before passing any kind of judgement.
" --and nine rings were given to the race of Men, who, above all things, desire power. ", and I get the feeling that one or both sides are unwilling to surrender any small part of their perceived power, to resolve the issue.
Unfortunate as it might be, "things", come to pass. So be it, and fall on.

I think the problem here though, is that they want to totally remove every last thing from the site. I agree, it was a dumb move on that guys part to put that locomotive in there, but at the same time, the stuff that HAS been there is being threatened.

The goal is to convince the local government not to throw everyone out. As you've noted, the guy who brought in the piece in question is the FORMER president. So to did the secretary step down. The main drive is by other volunteers who have been working on all this equipment, indeed they are the ones who seem to be putting all the effort in.
