MAY 20 FTR VOTE: A CHOICE BETWEEN A BUDGET AND A POLITICAL STUNT


Once again, Justin Katz and his TCC-in-exile cohorts demonstrate their approach to town government: "If it ain't broke, break it." (link below)

This year's Financial Town Referendum (FTR) isn't a choice between two budgets. It's a choice between a fully-vetted budget with a historically low tax increase to maintain & improve the community & the town's financial health on one hand, & another senseless, self-serving political stunt from the usual suspects on the other. 

All who care about our Tiverton community need to work to make sure Tiverton voters know the facts, & get out to vote at the May 20 FTR in support of the Budget Committee budget.
