Government, regardless of political type, is established with certain rules and procedures of behavior. Whether the rules and procedures are observed and honored determines the quality of the system. For some time, the Town of Stevensville often has disregarded either state or city rules regarding water rights, public participation, timely development of budgets or simply obtaining proper approval for legitimate purchases. It is time to change this behavior.
To the residents of Stevensville, I highly recommend and endorse Steve Gibson to be your next mayor.
I have known Steve for years, served with him in the State Legislature, and respect his dedication for proper behavior in government administration, public participation and budgetary skills. He is an honorable guy.
