Letter: Writer Backs Mills

Fri, Oct 14, 2011

 It is my strong opinion that the Town of Hamilton has to return to commonsense government. This requires leaders who follow fiscally responsible tax and spending policies and are accountable to the town residents.

The town is facing several key issues that will have a major impact on its residents such as Zoning and land use, property revaluations, taxes and the safe extraction of our natural gas resources. Unlike most of us, Scott Mills takes the time to research all sides of an issue and seeks answers that work in the best interest of the town. He seeks input from many individuals and weighs the costs and benefits to all residents.

Scott’s prior record shows that he follows financially sound principles; while he was serving on the Hamilton Town board we had reasonable budgets. Scott has always been willing to stand up for the residents, most recently on rezoning - land use regulations and revaluations-even while not serving in office. As our next supervisor I am confident he will represent all residents fairly at town and county level in a productive manner.

Mike Hotaling,

On a personal note-I extend many thanks to my sister Cathy Hotaling for the months of extra work and late night meetings assisting all the hundreds of citizens with the cumbersome paperwork needed to resolve their recent tax reassessment.
