Supports Kelly Ross

To Westford Residents:

The re-election of Kelly Ross to Westford’s Board of Selectmen in the May election will provide Westford residents with three more years of fair, thoughtful and calm leadership.  

I first met Kelly many years ago when he approached the Finance Committee at Town Meeting to volunteer in the effort to make the Town Meeting warrant booklet more user-friendly.   His appointment to the Finance Committee followed soon after, leading a few years later to his first run for the Board of Selectmen.  Kelly subsequently held leadership positions on each board.

Kelly’s knowledge of Westford’s financial picture made him a strong advocate for new cost-saving measures as well as contract settlements and re-organizations which retained service levels and jobs.    He understood that in order to maintain valued Town services, new methods of funding and management were needed. 

Terms on the Finance and School Committees gave me a unique view of Kelly’s willingness to seek compromise on difficult and contentious issues while demonstrating respect for each side.   His ability to keep an open mind on any issue is respected by his peers as well as other town board members and employees.

I am proud to be supporting Kelly Ross for another term on the Board of Selectmen and ask that you consider casting your ballot for him at the May 6, 2014 Town Election. 

Respectfully, 

Judith Culver, Stone Ridge Road
