Everyone should get out and vote on Tuesday, June 16th to let their voice be heard. I strongly encourage a NO vote. We don’t want the word free removed from our trash bylaw. It has been part of a commitment to all citizens, regardless of their individual trash disposal needs, for over 100 years.

If the word free were removed it would leave everyone victim to the whim of future Select Boards. Whatever may be promised now could change at anytime by a vote of 3 out of 5 Select Board members.

The trash system we have now is one that works for everyone. We all have enough complications in our lives, keep trash simple. If our present system serves your needs join me in voting NO. “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it”.
