Election day Part II- Bancroft Village Board

I have served as the Bancroft representative on the Cuming County Economic Development Board of Directors for the past five years. Cuming County Economic Development has had a positive effect in every community in the county. I attended the Candidates forum at the Bancroft Senior Center last week to find out where the candidates for the Village Board stood on continuing to as a full partner with Cuming County Economic Development. Bancroft Village Board Chairman Jack Gardes said he will not support membership in Cuming County Economic Development. Candidate Kent Hansen said that he needed to know more about it before making a decision. Mike Hermelbracht, Aaron Peirce, and Angel Anderson were unable to attend the forum because of other commitments that night. My sources tell me that they are in favor of staying with CCED. Cuming County Economic Development is in the middle of putting together a housing project that will involve the Village of Bancroft. Now is not the time drop our membership. Please vote for Village Board candidates that will support Cuming County Economic Development.
