Vote on June 3

The outcome of the prop 2 1/2 override vote on June 3 will have a profound impact on Shrewsbury in future years. Whether you are for or against the override don't allow a low turnout at the polls to decide the town's direction. It's too important.

I strongly support the override. The town manager, the Finance Committee and the Selectman recognize the town school's and other services have been impacted by years of constrained budgets. As a resident I know that Shrewsbury's tax rate is far below the rates of comparable surrounding towns (and will continue to be after the override). To me the override is an important investment to protect an important asset - the town I live in.
