Support for Hughes, Jarman | Letter

Published 12:17 pm Tuesday, March 26, 2013

In response to Don Pencil’s letter: yes, people, speak up! I too have the same concern. We will not have a balanced council with both Lisa and Lovel  being elected. We do need Jamie to continue as he is the only  experienced council member  from his district. Believe me, I do appreciate what both Lovel and Lisa have done for our community and their abilities, but at the same time a balance of how we go forward is imperative for the overall health of our islands. How long can we continue to ask the “middle class” to support the issues that are eroding  their ability to continue to stay here? Those who have ample  resources  may not be concerned. I wholeheartedly support Hughes and Jarman because of their background and experience. They will come into office with a fresh yet open approach as to  address what will be best for the islands overall.
