Please vote ‘yes’ for the Town of Killington, Article 4, water bond vote

Dear Editor,

Hi it’s Jim Haff, and it’s election time. 

I’ve been really quiet, letting you voters decide ballot items on your own, but I wanted to point out one thing on Article 4.

This is the waterline that will feed the community, not the village section. This will feed the much needed parcel that the town has bought now with donations from the resort and Great Gulf for workforce housing. 

We need this to pass.

Once again, I will stay out of the rest of the articles, but please, this is a must for the town because we already got the water through for the village. 

If you decide to vote “no” then I guess you only voted to get the water for the village and not the town. I really don’t think that’s the case. 

Jim Haff, Killington

Editor’s note: Jim Haff is a current member of the Killington Select Board, he is not up for re-election.
