Elliott’s Vision – In His Own Words
When elected Ulster County’s first Comptroller, my role will be
to serve the people of Ulster County as a fiscal “watchdog”
who will provide strong oversight for the nearly $400 million county
budget that we taxpayers fund each year.
I will ensure that county-funded programs are executed in a way
that is not only open and transparent, but also cost-effective.
To that end, I intend to do everything I can to make sure that the
new county executive and the legislature are spending taxpayer money
wisely. I will make sure that all programs are well thought out and
that public funds are spent to achieve the intended result.
I am running because I believe it is crucial to keep the cost of
government down. I truly believe my emphasis will be preventing
waste, monitoring fraud and abuse of taxpayers’ dollars and,
most importantly, ensuring an efficient government that is responsive
to the needs of its citizens and our community.
I am running to do a job, not to get a job. |
