I want to embrace this opportunity to congratulate the Hillsborough municipal candidates! I take pleasure in writing this ahead of the election returns. Contrary to some sentiments expressed in previous editorials, I feel that the lack of opposition to these incumbents speaks volumes about their excellence on the job and the community’s satisfaction with the results of their work.
I think I speak for many residents of rural Orange County who consider themselves part of Hillsborough but can’t vote in municipal elections. We appreciate their dedication and tremendous efforts that benefit all of us. This is a special group who can work together toward what is in the best interest of our community without personal agendas getting in the way.
So congratulations to the candidates and thank you for your service and your commitment to improving our lives and community! We look forward to seeing even more great things in, and around, Hillsborough.Â
