MILFORD'S SMALL TOWN GOVERNMENT

• We  regular  citizens usually  see very little of what is done in our  name.    
• It is not hidden,  just  not Intuitively obvious to most  people.    
• All Selectmen’s meetings are available on  the Official Milford Website.    
• Folks can find essential details of the lengthy procedures, presently available.
• SELECTMEN are charged with being good fiscal stewards  of public funds and, they have by most measures,  accomplished that tasking.   
• CHALLENGE - We regular, busy Citizens need to be offered  short  ‘classes’  on how to best use the tools being offered to us &  be able to question the Board of Selectmen.  Perhaps after the attendees have commented, phone-in questions or comments might be available for a brief period...
• Infrequent 5th Monday meetings might be a good time for CITIZENS to  ‘CALL IN,’  after physically present Citizens have spoken DURING THE PUBLIC COMMENT PORTION OF DISCUSSIONS.
• We must CONTINUE to account for the funds we entrust to people hired to spend public monies wisely,  in a way which more citizens can grasp easily.
• We, the Citizenry,  depend upon the true measure of government's benevolence.    We can trust Town Government;  but,  we  must still  preform our due  diligence,  and  volunteer to confirm data provided.

 If YOU would,  please consider ELECTING ME  TO BE YOUR SELECTMAN; MY 1st  task will be safeguarding our Taxpayer’s  funds.   By  trying to make the information easier to understand ,  using competitive spreadsheets, and parallel reporting systems for each Warrant Article or proposal  -  ‘solicitation,’  hopefully more voters will get involved.
