LETTER: 4 Offer Common-Sense Values, Cooperative Spirit

To the Editor:
With the approach of the 2011 Village of Cooperstown Election Day on Tuesday, March 15, I write to encourage our neighbors and friends in the village to seriously consider electing four remarkable and dedicated candidates for positions on the Village Board.
Matt Schuermann, Jim Potts, Phil Lewis and Joan White have each and together clearly shown that they are both well prepared and well equipped to take on the varied challenges that presently face our village government.
Their long and deeply established roots in this community make them uniquely qualified to help shape a future for the village that remains consistent with the cooperative spirit, common-sense values and quiet efficiency which have for so many decades been the very foundation of productive village government.
Their active and long-standing presence in the midst of the business and cultural life of the community imparts to each of them a sound and studied perspective that will enable them to conduct the affairs of the Village Board with a solidly informed grasp of the issues and a rational approach to controlling spending and taxation, ensuring the efficient delivery of village services, protecting the integrity of the cultural, historic and environmental assets of the Village and developing and managing an intelligent and reasonable long-term strategic plan for a future of sound and effective management of the affairs of the village.
I urge all of your readers who live or have businesses in the Village of Cooperstown to become familiar with these exceptional candidates in hopes that they will agree with my view that these natural and proven leaders can provide the time-tested insight, experienced management and much-needed teamwork that this very special community needs to rely upon in its Village Board.
Please cast your important vote for Matt Schuermann, Jim Potts, Phil Lewis and Joan White, so that they can get right to work building a sound, strong and secure future for the village.
