What is really disappointing is that none of political parties or the candidates have put forward any solid plans regarding the offices they are campaigning for. The mayoral candidate that has put forth concepts on dealing with budget planning and spending is Donna Jacobson. Mr. McDaniel espouses a tired party line about education, infrastructure, and education without discussing where the money is going to come from.
My choices for this election:
Mayor –Jacobson (I)
Town Council – Andriote (I), Buebendorf (D), Hillman (R), McFee (R), Jurczyk (R), Longton (D), Caron (D)
Board of Education – No choices here, 4 vacancies, 4 candidates
Board of Zoning Appeals – Lakowsky (D), McNally (R), Wittofske (R)
Board of Assessment Appeals – No choices here, 2 vacancies, 2 candidates,
Reasons to not vote for someone:
Mayor – McDaniel (D) - Espouses party line, no stated plans or concepts to minimize tax burden
Town Council –
Tanner (D) – Conflict of interest, employed by Montville Board or Education
Murphy (D) – Conflict of interest, Chief of Oakdale Fire Department
Jones (I) – Idealist with minimal real world experience or economic background; conflict of interest, son employed by Montville Board of Education
Moore (R) – I really like his background but lacks sufficient experience in Montville
Board of Education – No choices here, 4 vacancies, 4 candidates
Board of Zoning Appeals – Adams (D) – Conflict of interest, Montville
Board of Assessment Appeals – No choices here, 2 vacancies, 2 candidates
