Campaign "08"
On January 29, 2008 there will be a national presidential primary as well
as a local municipal election for two LBTS commissioners and a mayor.
The CIC, (Citizens Initiative Committee) feels this election is a perfect
opportunity
for leadership to emerge that will carefully temper inevitable
change
or "progress" with a great respect for our "traditional" small town values. The CIC will interview potential candidates
and review the voting records of incumbents to determine if they meet our criteria regarding controlled development , responsive
and transparent government, low taxes and assessments, and overall quality of life issues.
Candidates who best fit with our philosophy will receive the "endorsement of the CIC"
A CIC endorsement carries great weight with the
voting public as evidenced with our tremendous success in past elections. Candidates who earn a CIC endorsement will also be
eligible to receive CIC campaign contributions as well as the support of a small army of dedicated citizenry who
will work tirelessly on their behalf. Please stay tuned for the most recent political updates by clicking the "Campaign
08" link.

Message from
CIC Chairman
Stuart Dodd
As Chairman of the Citizen Initiative Committee, I welcome you to visit our
website and read about the CIC's
many victories in restoring citizens' rights and protecting our small-town values. The CIC's goals in the upcoming election are
to right the wrongs done by the "Old Guard Commissioners" that have ruled this town of ours for several years.
We welcome you to come to our meetings to meet like-minded people who passionately believe the residents control the future of our
town through the ballot box. No more back-door deals and no more ordinances that overrule the vote or will of the people.
"Let
the sun shine in our Town
and our efforts in LBTS."
