Fiscal restraint is key

Dear Editor:

I listened to the Grand 101’s event with candidates for mayor and thank the Grand for offering that for those who couldn’t attend.

Each candidate spoke about bringing the council together and working as a team. However, after reading the Wellington Advertiser this morning I am concerned that one candidate used the word “I” 11 times on his post. It seems he is speaking as a singular part and not as a team effort.

For many of us who are dealing with the present day increasing costs of living, we need a mayor and council who will collaborate together to be cognizant of not increasing our taxes.

This will cause more hardship on families and seniors who are trying to live within their means. Whoever is elected, needs to be fiscally responsible to their citizens.
