Ogdensburg city councilor supports Hooper for county legislature

Posted

To the Editor:

I have known Don Hooper my entire life and I cannot think of a better person to represent the City of Ogdensburg on the St. Lawrence County Board of Legislatures.

Don has had a successful career as a CPA and has volunteered for many boards and committees. Don believes in the future of Ogdensburg and has worked his entire life to make this a better community.

St. Lawrence County is in financial distress. Continuously raising taxes and doling out money that we do not have is not the answer. We need leadership that knows how to balance a budget so that we can restore our fund balance and make St. Lawrence County financially secure well into the future.

Who better to help fix the financial issues at the county level than Don Hooper, a retired CPA whom owned his own firm in Ogdensburg.

Don believes in fiscal responsibility and will bring his knowledge and integrity to the county. If the City of Ogdensburg and St. Lawrence County are going to survive we need to fix the financial issue immediately.

St. Lawrence County and the City of Ogdensburg need Don Hooper. I will be supporting Don Hooper on November 4 and I hope you will join me in supporting him as well.

William Hosmer, Ogdensburg City Councilor
