This is both a personal and professional endorsement for Doug Bailey to be elected to the Brandon selectboard. Having dealt with Doug since the early 1980s at First Vermont Bank and been a friend of his for almost that long, I know very well the person who will represent us.
He will be accountable for his actions and demand accountability from those who report to the board. He will be financially conservative while open-minded. He will communicate to the taxpayers what we need to spend and why it is important. He will seek to expand the tax base by being pro-business.
This is Doug Bailey and he deserves your vote on March 3.
