Newcomer, Linda Hardacre, who has knocked on more than 6,000 doors since the start of the campaign, as well as, attending many town meetings, said she believes a councilâ€" lor must have accountability, integriâ€" ty, commitment, and financial experâ€" Both called for a more longâ€"term approach to curriculum. tise. The senior financial analyst told the audience she believes local govâ€" ernment is a people business where everyone should get involved.

Reinsborough said she believes in fiscal accountability and measurâ€" ability and more parent/community wvolvement with the schools. Docherty, too, has highlighted financial responsibility, as well as, communication, sex education, and a reâ€"evaluation of educational goals as issues for this decade.

He said that while the town has grown in populaâ€" tion, along with the staff and salaries at the Town Hall, the visible services have decreased. On Monday, he said he wanted to be part of the solution, rather than just point out problems, and offered to change the way senior staff at the Town Hall are paid. Planche favors a "pay for performance" basis for senior staff; a flattening out of adminâ€" istration overhead; and look at a userâ€" pay garbage collection system, amone other suggestions. on Monday, Nov. 14 you have a choice Mayor Ann Mulvale 338â€"8556 AUTHORIZED BY THE CE.O.
