Westlake renewal levy will continue to assure strong safety force

On Nov. 8, Westlake voters are asked to renew the .9 mill levy that currently supports the salary of eight firefighters/paramedics and eight police officers. This funding source has been in effect since 1966 and has been renewed every five years. Consequently, it is important that we maintain this funding to continue to keep our police and fire personnel properly staffed to meet the everyday demands of our growing community.

Westlake has taken pride in managing your tax dollars in a responsible and effective manner. Your continued support of this renewal (NOT A TAX INCREASE) will assure a strong and responsive safety force for the next five years. Please vote yes on Issue 99 as you cast your ballot for the Nov. 8 election.

We appreciate your confidence in us and look forward to an even better future as we meet the needs and challenges of our great community.

Sincerely,
Mayor Dennis M. Clough
Council President Michael F. Killeen
Edward G. Hack, Ward 1
James P. Connole, Ward 2
Dennis J. Sullivan, Ward 3
Michael F. O’Donnell, Ward 4
Kenneth R. Brady, Ward 5
Mark R. Getsay, Ward 6
