Letter: Dart Supports Mills

Tue, Oct 25, 2011

Recently I was contemplating the upcoming election for the Town of Hamilton and I wondered what might be the general perception of the voters. Perhaps there is the notion that there is not much the elected officials can do on the local level so it really doesn’t matter who gets voted in – “ So I’ll just vote for the one I know – they seem like a good person. “

The fact is that all of the candidates for town council and supervisor are “ nice people “ and I’m sure have the best of intentions. It is also a fact that there is much that needs to be done by the local government to keep the residents and businesses of the township thriving.

Recently I have put myself in a position to be conscious of local government and I have been amazed at how involved and how intricate the whole process is, especially for the position of supervisor. I have become aware that there is only one person that knows what the heck is going on – Scott Mills.

When Scott starts talking about the function of the town board and all the logistics involved, his knowledge and enthusiasm is overwhelming. Scott Mills has served as deputy supervisor and therefore he has received on the job training, which is the best kind. That is why Scott is the one person capable of the position of supervisor for Hamilton Township.

For those of us who want our town to return to fiscal stability and to function with common sense, we need to recognize that it is absolutely essential to elect Scott Mills supervisor for town of Hamilton. Please join me in voting for Scott on November 8.
