We wish the new Morrisville Town Council well. We ask that each elected official be
independent and only be concerned with citizen and town interests. For the sake of our town’s future it is
imperative that council members always have an open mind, thoroughly review all
material related to an issue, and heed the opinions and analysis of residents
and the town’s professional staff. We
object to elected officials being unprepared for meetings, following the
direction of a group and individual campaign supporters, and voting in lock-step
with other council members following prior outside agreement.
Any candidate endorsed by Citizens For Morrisville must have
this commitment. Citizens For Morrisville personally witnesses the
motivation, dedication and knowledge of the candidates. Our members are most
active and involved in Town activities. We attend most Town Council Meetings
and other functions, volunteer service on various town committees and programs,
speak at public hearings, and closely follow the issues facing our community. There is no agenda for our endorsed
candidates to fulfill. The only
requirement is honesty and integrity in independently representing what one
truly feels is in the best interest of citizens and the town
Public officials should be independent, knowledgeable, and committed
to serving only the interests of citizens, not a personal agenda, an outside group’s
special interests, or yield to the persuasiveness of a another council member. Citizens For Morrisville will be watching to assure that
this is the guiding principle of our new Town Council.
