Letter to Editor in Support of Carlo Bacci:
I’m supporting Carlo Bacci for Select board and ask you to support him too on Tuesday, April 2.
This year’s select board race is about balance and diversity. As a small business owner, I recognize the need for a voice which represents and understands the Reading business community. We need to grow our revenue tax base to ensure sustainability. Carlo’s business experience will benefit the Select Board in protecting the existing businesses and work to attract new businesses. Carlo’s common sense and fiscally responsible approach will benefit the community. Carlo like his opponents has new ideas; however, he’s the only candidate with real business experience in Reading and other communities in Massachusetts. Proposing to tax empty storefronts isn’t a revenue generator it’s a double tax and something he doesn’t support. Carlo alone pledged not to vote in support of an operating override for the next five years because he recognizes the need to truly support our entire community including our elders so they may continue to call Reading their home. As a small business owner, he understands needs and wants and working within a budget and will benefit the Select Board to prioritize living within a budget especially with the day to day operational costs.
Carlo Bacci is the fresh common sense fiscally responsible voice the Select Board needs. Please join me in voting for Carlo Bacci for Select Board on Tuesday, April 2!
