Voting for Heller and Jones

Mon, 05/29/2023 - 5:30pm

Dear Editor:

We—Wiscasset citizens, taxpayers, business owners—strongly endorse re-electing Terry Heller and Dusty Jones to the Board of Selectmen. In addition to serving on the Board of Selectmen, Terry has spent four years as chairman of the Appearance of the Town Committee, and two years as advisor to the Waterfront Committee, and initiated the formation of the Waterfront Working Group. Dusty has spent the last two years as advisor to the Finance Committee, Broadband Committee, Airport Committee, and Budget Committee.

The current board has taken care of long-neglected maintenance and repairs and salaries for the Town Fire Department, EMS, Police Department, Wastewater Treatment Plant, Airport, and Community Center—without raising taxes, and using sound financial practices. And the current board is moving us forward with more economic development than previous boards, including putting a town planner in the budget for citizens to vote on.

We—the undersigned citizens, taxpayers, business owners—want Wiscasset to keep moving forward, and we strongly urge Wiscasset voters to re-elect Terry Heller and Dusty Jones to the Wiscasset Board of Selectmen.
