Sidonio has saved taxpayers’ money in Murray

Editor:

Dear fellow Republicans in the Township of Murray, on June 27, we are asked to come out for our choice for Republican candidate for the supervisor of the Town of Murray.

My family and I couldn’t be prouder of Mr. Joe Sidonio, our present supervisor. He has promised to work on a number of things that needed correcting and has either corrected them or is in the process of doing so.

When he first ran for town supervisor he brought to everyone’s attention that every two gallons of water we were purchasing we were only getting paid for one gallon. That’s a 50 percent loss. Working with our water department, he was able to get our losses down to 15 percent. Wow, wow, thank you Joe. And he is still working on it!

Mr. Sidonio also worked to re-finance our water districts so that when they come to the end of our pay period on the bonds our little town will have saved $630,964.52. Another wow for Joe with his leadership.

Mr. Sidonio also, as one of his future projects, wants to work to bring tourism here because the extra money brought from it would bring taxes down!

Since he has been in office, he has worked on our Soldiers Monument in Fancher – getting it repaired and brought to the National Register of Historic Places out of respect for the many soldiers that gave their lives or were wounded in the last wars.

Before Mr. Sidonio was in office he was instrumental in getting one of the little country cemeteries on Route 104 refenced and having the stones reset out of respect for our forefathers. (Note: He suggested that we use the Boy Scouts which saved the town money.) He has always had a deep respect for the town.

I could go on and on with his accomplishments, but I would ask you to look at your town tax. He has kept them down. The last year alone where President Biden says we are entitled to 8.5 percent increase in Social Security, our town didn’t go up one penny. Wow, thanks Joe!

We are fortunate to have a man like Mr. Joe Sidonio who joined the Marines knowing that if we go to war that’s who they send on the front lines to do battle. Joe loves his country and served us well. Joe went from there to take on accounting which is a blessing for us to have him in leadership. He also went on to be a successful businessman. I noticed Joe spends about double the time working in the office and holds more workshops than we are normally used to.

Yes, I believe Mr. Joe Sidonio wants to serve with all of his heart and do the best job he can do. I also understand he has not requested a raise in pay since he has been our supervisor.

I would ask my fellow Republicans to come out and vote for this man that is taking good care of your money.
