As a North Salem resident for the past 32 years, I have had the privilege of witnessing the town’s enduring charm and rural character. North Salem’s wooded areas, tranquil landscapes, and sense of community drew me to this wonderful place, and I’ve enjoyed every moment of my time here. As a retired high school teacher and an avid outdoorsman who cherishes fishing, hiking, and hunting, I found in North Salem a haven of natural beauty that has remained remarkably untouched.
In an era where development has transformed neighboring towns and altered their landscapes irreversibly, North Salem has stood as a beacon of rural authenticity. This cherished aspect of our town is a testament to the values we hold dear – values that prioritize the preservation of our natural environment and the maintenance of our rural way of life.
This year’s Town Board election carries great significance for the future of North Salem. We have the opportunity to elect representatives who share our deep commitment to preserving the very essence of our town. Dr. Elizabeth Almeyda and Town Councilman Brent Golisano, running for Town Board, are candidates who understand the importance of safeguarding our rural heritage.
Just like many of us, they value North Salem’s wooded areas, its serene landscapes, and the tight-knit community that defines our town. Their dedication to responsible development, environmental stewardship, and fiscal responsibility aligns perfectly with the principles that have made North Salem the exceptional place it is today.
In a world where rapid growth and urbanization seem to be the norm, North Salem stands as a reminder that it is possible to maintain our rural identity while still progressing responsibly. We have seen neighboring towns transformed beyond recognition, and it is our shared responsibility to ensure that North Salem’s unique character endures.
North Salem is a place that has welcomed me with open arms and provided me with the peace and tranquility I sought. Together, let’s ensure that future generations can continue to experience the same rural beauty and sense of community that brought us here in the first place. That can be done by voting down new green progressive agendas, no new onerous lighting laws, and no TOD (transit oriented development).
In the upcoming election, I ask all North Salem residents to consider the candidates who are committed to preserving our rural charm and way of life. Let us cast our votes for Dr. Elizabeth Almeyda and re-elect Town Councilman Brent Golisano, individuals who understand the importance of protecting what we hold dear by preserving, not infringing, on our property rights.
