It is important for everyone to know how our local government is being run and most of all, how our tax dollars are being managed.

Correction - At the top of page 2 of It's Your Town Newsletter the statement attributed to Deputy Mayor/Committeeman Tony Fiore is not accurate, it should read as follows:

"Committee looked very hard and tried not to cut that which would impact the children."

not

"Committee looked very hard and tried not to cut that which did not impact the children."

It was pointed out to me that a double negative was used in the sentences which
altered the meaning of what was said at the meeting. Sorry if there was any confusion.
