It's time for vision and leadership in East Greenbush.

It's time for financial recovery.

It's time...

for a formal financial recovery plan;

for an end to junk bond status;

for prudent spending;

for a fully functioning system of financial record keeping;

for the conduct of, and compliance with meaningful audits;

for long term strategies for debt reduction and lower taxes.

It's time for open and accountable government.

It's time...

for a formal commitment to ethical conduct by town officials;

for transparency in decision-making;

for citizen participation in governing;

for freedom of information;

for healthy, spirited, and focused debate;

for decisions to be based on the needs of the town and its citizens.

It's time for professional administration of town government.

It's time...

for a workload analysis to determine proper staffing levels;

for internal controls and written policies and procedures;

for hiring based on merit;

for an end to patronage, nepotism and special consideration for the well-connected;

for town employees to be put in a position to succeed;

for reduced reliance on expensive outside consultants.
