Rosenfeld wields the right stuff | Letters

I was pleased to see our mayor, Carrie Lacher, endorse Howie Rosenfeld for county council.

She’s right — he’s represented the citizens of the town admirably on a host of issues, including ferry service, the environment, and cooperation between the town and county, and I know he’ll represent those living in the Turn Point/Pear Point area equally well now that they’ve been added to his district.

His long residence on the island, as well as his background as a businessman, as director of The Whale Museum, as fire chief, and as a member of the town council have broadened his capabilities, as well as the voters’ knowledge of who he is and what we can expect.
