As a former elected official here in Hillsborough Township, I can attest to the hard work and dedication it takes to continually work daily, weekly, monthly, and yes, yearly in some cases to get things done. Elected officials need to be knowledgeable and in touch with not only what is facing their own township, but also need to be informed with laws and decisions based on the state and federal government and how it effects all residents locally.
I am writing this letter to endorse Deputy Mayor McCauley and Committeeman Doug Tomson to continue the fight against the affordable housing statistics the Democratic party is shoving into the communities based on false facts and information, not considering local infrastructure, and the burden this will have on townships like ours. I saw recently the candidates for the Democratic party make a statement clearly inexperienced with understanding this has been going on for years, it is not something new.
There are many other reasons to vote for the Republican party including staying under the 2 percent cap and flat municipal taxes for the last few years. Investing in our parks for children to have a place to play and have fun outdoors, keeping recreation programs along with the upcoming Halloween festivities and other fun activities for residents to participate in throughout the year. Celebrating veterans with a tribute breakfast every year before the Memorial Day parade, along with acknowledging our Purple Heart heroes by becoming a Purple Heart community, and all of the accolades awarded this year, and past years making our community one of the safest, and best places to live.
Please come out and vote for the Republican candidates Gloria McCauley and Doug Tomson, choose experience and knowledge to keep Hillsborough moving in the right direction, and continue to make it one of the best places to live!
