To the Valley News:
I appreciate the opportunity to say thank you to the voters of the Town of Essex for allowing me to work as their Supervisor for the past four years. It has been a true honor to serve the public.
During my time as Town Supervisor some of my accomplishments include personal goals such as:
- Successfully administering a $12 million dollar waste water treatment plant on time and under budget
- Facing a retaining wall along Lake Champlain with stone – an eight year old incomplete project
- Securing funding for a water project mandated by New York State Department of Health.
In addition I have served all of the public with fair and equitable practices, provided full disclosure and open door policies, held elected officials and town employees accountable for their actions, and led by example.
I have learned from my mistakes and honed in on my strengths and for all of my work and accomplishments I remain proud.
The work is as challenging as it is rewarding and I wish my successor much luck!
Thank you again for your support and a Happy New Year to all!
Sharon Boisen
Supervisor, Town of Essex
2010-2013
