Letter: This Bristol ‘mayor’ vote will never go away

Posted

This letter is in response to your article about changing the title of town administrator to mayor.

I am shocked that the town council would let this go forward to a vote in such poor economic times. I say this because we all know, nothing will change except the salary of this position, if it changes to mayor.

Don’t worry, people. If it doesn’t pass, I am sure they will keep bringing it up again — somewhat like they did for school regionalization.
