Attendance Counts

An elected official has the obligation to actively participate at our monthly Town Meetings.  I am very aware that council members belong to committees and also must attend other meetings that are linked back to the town community.  The Town Board meets only one time per month.  I believe that this is a meeting that should never be missed except  on rare occasions.  Family comes first but sometimes everyone has to suffer just a little bit.    The family is important but should never be used as the excuse!  Jim Durand gets a C minus for attendance at town meetings over the past few years.  I believe in attending our town meetings. Near perfect attendance at our town meetings is my pledge to you.
