A NOTE FROM YOUR LIAISON Billy Caron

Dear Seniors,
Myself, the Town Council, and the
Mayor are continuing our diligence on
the Town Budget, anticipating the worst
from the pending state cuts, while continuing
to provide our much needed services.
We will all work hard to provide
our residents with the best possible, viable
budget. Most of you understand that
we take this task very seriously. We are
also residents and tax payers, as well as
many family members. I am always concerned
for all of our residents; our seniors
and their reflection on our Town
budget while living on fixed incomes, our
families with children, and everyone in
between! I am always available for your
input!
I am looking forward to seeing everyone
at the 25th Anniversary celebration
of our wonderful Senior Center and I am
pleased that the Center chose to honor
the Mohegan Tribal Council as their special
guests for all they do!
~ Liaison Billy Caron
