To the editor:
As we near the end of budget season, I write to ask that you stay until the end of the Financial Town Meeting on Wednesday, May 22 and that you consider casting one of your votes for me to continue serving on the Committee on Appropriations.
Two years ago, I was elected with a call for greater transparency and communication to taxpayers and a promise for more opportunities for taxpayer input into the appropriations process. As a team, we’ve committed to being accessible and to making our meeting focus known in advance.
Through serving, I’ve learned that there is great emotion attached to how we spend and invest our town financial resources and that finding the balance between excellent services and affordability can be elusive and divisive.
I see our town budget as a financial expression of our community values and goals. It would be my great honor to continue to improve our communication, taxpayer engagement and to ensure that our values will flow into our budget for years to come.
Thank you for your vote.
