VALUE STATEMENT


Happy New Year!  As we begin 2013, it is a natural time to reflect on many things, including our shared community values. Here are the Austerlitz Democrats' stated values: 



Service: Our first purpose is to provide service to the whole community.



Transparency: Community life is enhanced when town business is conducted as openly as possible, and when information can be easily accessed.



Pride in Austerlitz: We recognize and support the unique quality of life in our town. It is pastoral yet vibrant. We encourage residents in their business and artistic endeavors wherever possible.



Competence: Town government must practice high ethical standards and pursue a professional management style in working to accomplish goals.



We are working on our 2013 goals, based on these values, for this important local election year, and will be meeting to discuss them in February; stay tuned for a meeting date!
