Don Kerr's Letter to the Editor May 1, 2013


It’s time to make a choice New Paltz. On May 7th, WRITE IN KERR & ROTZLER or fill in the bubble for another candidate. My hope is that this wise community makes the most of an opportunity to elect experienced and creative local leaders – with track records of smart and constructive action.
 
In addition to her term as Deputy Mayor, law writing and grant experience, Rebecca Rotzler arrived on Staten Island with volunteers from New Paltz immediately after Hurricane Sandy. Demonstrating the commitment and energy that my running mate would bring to service as trustee, Rebecca has continued to spend her weekends there in service, up until this campaign. In Staten Island, it was Rebecca whom they sent into sewage filled basements again and again for her fortitude. And when our beloved city of New Orleans fell to Katrina, the Kerr family housed a single mother and her sparkling daughter for months. 
 
Rotzler and Kerr walk the walk. Please WRITE US IN.
 
My email handle is Donpaltz. For me, that says it all. It embodies who I am and my life in our wonderful community: PTSA, Reformed Church Choir (retired), NewPaltz.org, One Bus/One Town, Land Use and Transportation Study, Slice of New Paltz, Public Access committee, Board of Education, NP ad-hoc Tax Alliance, consolidation subcommittee, and more. 
 
Elected positions are best brought to life by clear vision, ability to articulate, empathy, strategy, and skin tough as leather. We have repeatedly demonstrated those qualities over time – you know who we are. You know that you can trust us. 
 
WRITE IN KERR & ROTZLER for New Paltz. Thank you. 

Donald Kerr
New Paltz
