LETTER: Booan Savvy, Professional, Can Do Job

3-05-10

To the Editor:
Joe Booan, a fourth-generation Cooperstown native with longtime family ties, returned to his roots several years ago. His passion for our community and its citizens is clear, as evidenced by his volunteerism and involvement in the community.
Joe’s professional and administrative savvy stand him in good stead. He is perceptive and effective and deserves recognition for his work while serving as a trustee. His skills and vision provide the leadership necessary to help address the challenges facing the village.
He is committed to the work it will take to “preserve tradition while ensuring financial stability.” He is aware of the need to examine the potential to pursue sustained economic growth and development as alternatives for the already tax-burdened residents of the village – without shifting unacceptable burdens on our future generation.
Joe is willing to give service to the village and its citizens. His desire to serve is to work to find solutions to the problems we face that will benefit the community.
He has served us well with his loyalty, professionalism, work ethic, knowledge about the village and its citizens, and his commitment to help address the challenges facing the village.
Please support Joe Booan for Mayor of Cooperstown.
