After watching the candidates for Southbridge Town
Council “debate” I remain essentially unimpressed.
As they have for years they all decried the town’s
reliance on landfill revenues and proclaimed their opposition to steadily
rising property taxes. The solution according to all of them was to stimulate
new business that would expand our tax base as well as provide employment for
town residents.
However, not one of them has put forward any kind of
plan for such a business or a practical means for enticing any such business to
locate in Southbridge.
