To the Editor:
Residents deserve a better Ship Bottom and I plan to right the ship toward much-needed change.
Back in May I started walking and talking in Ship Bottom. I knocked on hundreds of doors and the opening statement I had for the residents of Ship Bottom was: “If you’re happy with the way things are going with the current council and mayor, then I won’t take any of your time. But if you think we can do better and you think it’s time for a change and you have a few minutes, I’d like to speak with you.”
