January 2012
Happy New Year! As 2012 gets underway, I'm beginning to feel some optimism about the Village's and indeed our nation's situation. And more and more people I talk to are feeling the same way.
Maybe it's a result of the length of the recent downturn, but more and more, I'm seeing signs of the economy getting better and I feel better than ever about Saugerties, its fiscal health and the very positive feeling about our great community of businesses.
My congratulations to former Village Trustee Kelly Myers as she moves on to her Town Supervisor responsibilities. I look forward to continuing a good working relationship with her. Congratulations as well to the reelection and new terms for 2 great members of the Town council -- Fred Costello and Leeanne Thornton.
Finally, my heartfelt thanks to former Supervisor Greg Helsmoortel, who always made it clear how much he loves Saugerties, in all my dealings with him.
Stay safe, healthy and optimistic and this time next year, let's hope to be looking back on a very successful 2012!
Best wishes, all!
William E. Murphy
Mayor
Village of Saugerties
