I am writing in support of T.J. Redefer, Dr. Jill Compello and Paul Bauer who want to address the problems in Town Hall.
Aptly named the Clean Sweep Team, they can and will confront these pressing issues: Reduce bay flooding, strengthen public safety, re-establish transparent government, safeguard 35-foot height limit. Jill Compello, Ph.D. is a trusted friend and colleague in my work at the University of Delaware. Her long-term work in education as an administrator and researcher has made her uniquely qualified to mount an organized and sustained effort to negotiate changes where they need to be made, and to create supports for current policies that need to be continued or enforced.
As a Dewey Beach homeowner and longtime member of this community, she is completely invested in the prosperity and sustainability of this great little town. Speaking as a South Rehoboth homeowner, what happens in Dewey is important to all of us. The issues this group of candidates has chosen to focus on matter deeply to our towns!
For these reasons and more, I hope people all over Dewey will enthusiastically support The Clean Sweep Team.
