The candidates for Warden and Burgess running on the Jewett City Party (JCP) ticket have a plan to repair and improve our roads and sidewalks here in Jewett City. "Any expenditure of tax dollars starts with the residents and taxpayers that are paying for the improvements," said Ron Ward, JCP candidate for Borough Warden.
Ward, announced that Katrease Gerace, JCP candidate for Burgess, will be taking the lead to get input from Jewett City residents on the roads and sidewalks that need repairs. Gerace stated, "I look forward to meeting with residents to learn about the road and sidewalk repairs that are needed in their neighborhood."
The JCP candidates for Warden and Burgess will be making a list of needed repairs to present at the annual April meeting when the elected officials of the Borough of Jewett City and the Town of Griswold meet as required by the Charter of the Borough of Jewett City. The Charter states,
Section 22: The town shall annually in the month of April pay to the Borough of Jewett City such sum of money for the maintenance of streets in said Borough as may be necessary properly to maintain said streets, such sum to be agreed upon by the Warden and Burgesses of said Borough and the Selectman of said Town, and they failing to agree the amount to be fixed by a Judge of the Superior Court on application of the Warden and Burgesses or the Selectman." (page 21 of the Charter of the Borough of Jewett which is on file in the Slater Public Library, Jewett City).Residents, taxpayers and community members with suggestions for road and sidewalk improvements are encouraged to contact Ron Ward or Katrease Gerace.
