21, 2005 Whether you are a Democrat, a Republican or independent, we consider ourselves your Killingworth Democratic Town Committee. Yes, we want our candidates to win the offices they run for. But our reason is not to seize power. It's to share it, openly and honestly, so that Killingworth can regain control of its future. The past few years have been marked by choices that were difficult and often divisive. At times our Town saw its energies diverted and diminished by confusion and conflict. Our leadership lacked the transparent communication, cooperative spirit and common ground effective government requires. Our boards, commissions and committees operated under that shadow. They suffered, as did we all. The KDTC is here to serve our whole Town and, more importantly, to help make our Town whole again. Our goal is to focus energy on issues that are of urgent importance to everyone. To put forth and, when elected, take practical, concrete steps to address pressing concerns. Before we finalize our slate of candidates we developed a plan to do just that: Effective Leadership for a Well-Planned Future -- The 2005 Killingworth Democratic Town Committee Platform. Over the next few months you'll be reading more about it here and hearing more about it from the candidates we nominate. It is a cohesive message about how to manage growth, further education, revitalize Town government, include all our residents, and control taxes. Our platform is a plan, not an agenda. It puts forth ideas but allows for modification. It outlines concrete directions without dictating solutions. Most of all, it provides a framework for effective, coordinated Town action at a critical time in our history. The Killingworth Democratic Party is working for government that is open, honest, capable, accountable and responsive to all our citizens. Our goal is to provide strong, competent, fiscally responsible leadership. We acknowledge that growth will happen, but we believe that it can and must be managed to preserve the unique character of Killingworth. We are committed to good government that coordinates solid planning with effective management. With your support, we will bring Killingworth the responsible stewardship it needs for a healthy future we can all enjoy.
