Company president says Heminway is proven to be effective leader, problem-solver

Editor:

Jim Heminway is an ideal candidate for the Shelby Town Supervisor. I have known Jim since grade school and know him to be very bright, personable and hardworking.

He was hired by Monroe Electronics in 1998. In the early 2000’s he recognized an opportunity to enter the “Emergency Alert” (EAS) market. He successfully negotiated the acquisition of various products to enter the EAS market. The negotiations were very tricky and involved negotiating with and satisfying multiple parties with very limited resources to do so.

In his time at Monroe Electronics, Jim negotiated the sale of the Electrostatics product line to Trek and oversaw the change of our name to Digital Alert Systems. He further directed the market and product development which has made Digital Alert Systems the market leader for emergency alert systems nationally. None of this would have happened without Jim’s hard work and dedication.

Jim is ideally suited to work through the types of issues the Town of Shelby is encountering. He is excellent at identifying and defining areas of concern and weighing alternatives and setting priorities.

Jim has worked very well over the years with difficult situations and people.  I don’t know why Jim would want the thankless job of Shelby Town Supervisor, but he is an ideal candidate for the position and has my highest recommendation.
