LETTER: Being elected is an honour

Through your paper I would like to convey the following message to residents:

No words can describe the overwhelming honour of being elected in your good faith to represent you and your family on our district council.

These past nine months have been a privilege beyond any I can compare.

The confidence that you have demonstrated will soon see itself a new face, tackling local issues and fighting local causes.

As I have said before – not only a week ago – your time will as always remain ours, but this time I can tell you, your vote has extended its grasp to generations past and generations yet to come.

Coun Jack McLean
Spalding St John’s ward
