July 15th Vote

2014-07-03 02:07:58

Hello All,

Time is quickly approaching to send a message and approve our town budget.  Our mission is to get every registered voter to cast their ballot.

In the meantime, Chris Cole and I have purchased some "Vote Yes" signs, that you have hopefully started to see around town.  We still have a bunch left and we wanted this faithful group to have the opportunity to put one on their property.  Obviously, we need these signs to get as much exposure as possible.  So, if you have a great spot for a sign and would like one send me an email at timlanglois@msn.com.

 

Thanks Tim

Fair Haven Town Budget

2014-06-04 01:06:51

The Town budget was defeated this evening by a vote of 210 no to 203 yes.  I want to thank all of our supporters and those who worked hard to get the word out.

I think of this as a set back only!  There is no clear message sent by the voters of Fair Haven.  I believe we have many more supporters out there that were unable to cast their vote today.  With over 1,400 registered voters and a turnout of only 413 there is a lot of room for growth.  We must make our voice's heard and continue to fight for what we believe is right for our town.

VOTING IS ON JUNE 3, 2014

Calling All Fair Haven Residents, Friends and Family!!

 


TIME HAS COME!!!  We will be voting on the town budget on June 3rd.  Our select board has reduced the expenditure budget by $47,138
through a painstaking process that I personally watched.  You should also be aware that this is a reduction from the current budget by $76,363!! Though our town has a lot of work to do, our goal of a sustainable future cannot be achieved by purely cutting expenditures!  We have to think bigger picture and longer terms to make effective meaningful change.  Unfortunately, there are some good people being misled by a few.  These few are willing to manipulate information and spread mistruths in order to pursue a personal agenda.  This irresponsible and reckless behavior cannot be allowed to take our town down a road that could take us decades to repair.

 


We must take it upon ourselves to get our friends, family, & neighbors out to vote.  Make no mistake, it is going to take all of us to get this budget passed.  Passing this budget is crucial to our town’s future.  If this budget is not passed, the select board will be forced to cut Police funding, therefore reducing our current coverage levels.  The State Police cannot make up what we will lose by cutting a forth officer.  The select board has to do the work we have tasked them to do, plan for a sustainable future, and stop catering to the personal agenda of a few.

 

 

GET THE WORD OUT….VOTE!!  Early voting can still be done by visiting the town offices.  PLEASE COME OUT TO THE SPECIAL TOWN MEETING ON JUNE 2, 2015 @ 7PM.  See info below.



SPECIAL TOWN MEETING: FISCAL YEAR 2014-2015 SELECTBOARD BUDGET

Keeping the Momentum

2014-04-19 13:50:21

I hope everyone is doing well.  Spring has finally sprung!  Monday is the next special budget meeting and it is going to be important to let our Select Board members know exactly how you feel.  Our solidarity is our best tool at this point so please encourage all of your Fair Haven friends and family to sign our petition.  Share the link to the online petition, or they can sign one of the petitions at Liberty Street Market, Cleanorama, or the Fair Haven Pizza house.  Thanks for your help, and let's get the word spread and protect our town from those who would carelessly, and recklessly make a decision that would have long term affects without the necessary information.

Thanks Tim

Hello All,


How are your networking skills???  We have a little over 100 signatures today.  That is awesome, but we can’t stop now!!  We need to actively seek our Fair Haven friends, husbands, wives, and relatives to sign up.  It appears the board will be reviewing the police budget this evening.  I will report back to you how things went tomorrow.

Let’s keep our momentum and get as many signatures as we can.  Thanks for your help, and together let’s build for a better, stronger, and more prosperous future!!
