Letter from the Candidate: Patty Morrison, 2019 Commissioner of Finance Candidate

By Patty Morrison, 2019 Commissioner of Finance Candidate | Letters to the Editor

Saratoga Springs relies upon working relationships between the government and the community. Programs and policies can serve the greatest number of citizens by participating in inclusive community dialogue.

We as Saratogians must stay vigilant and protect the unique characteristics that make our city so desirable. 

• Promoting green open space and smart growth
•Generating revenue through community prioritized projects
• Creating term limits and removing healthcare for life incentive for council members
• Affordable housing
• Ensuring transparency and public engagement

I am eager to use my 25-years’ experience managing multimillion-dollar projects for Fortune 500 companies to ensure the city budget reflects residents’ priorities and sound investments in the future prosperity of our city. Having managed finances for both growing and shrinking budgets, I am well equipped to tackle projects on time and in budget. Hired for my success in budget/project management and communications, one of my biggest strengths is listening and asking the tough questions to find workable solutions. 

After knocking on 1,500 doors, I’m hearing the community expects progressive change.  I chose this community because it is exceptional. Please vote for me as your next Commissioner of Finance, on June 25, so together we can ensure its future is strong and well planned for.

Respectfully,

- Patty Morrison, 2019 Commissioner of Finance Candidate - Saratoga Springs
Your Voice, Our City’s Future
