FAIRFIELD’S CHALLENGE:

Dear Neighbor,

Fairfield has reached a tipping point. Unsustainable annual increases in pension and healthcare costs, stemming from poorly negotiated labor contracts, have made flat year-over-year budgets impossible to achieve.

Without leaders who are serious about recalibrating these contracts, we can easily anticipate a budget shortfall exceeding $50 million over the next 5 years.  Tax hikes can no longer mask the problem - taxpayers are tapped out and high property taxes are already hurting the value of our homes.

So this cost burden could force service reductions, layoffs and a new era of limitation that's unimaginable to most of our citizens today.

You can count on me to address this issue with courage and bold action.

Joe Palmer

RTM, District 4

I get it, taxpayers are fed up - I’m one of them!

We demand immediate action from our elected officials

and our only option is to vote Republican this November.
