Advocating for a Safer Carmel School District

Speaking to the August Audit Committee Meeting on a Budgetary Amendment to fund two new School Resource Officers

Investing in Adults with Special Needs is a Smart Investment

Over the several months, going back to February, I have proudly advocated directly to the Putnam County Legislature, the need to invest in our resident adults with Special Needs.

It is a smart investment, and when the chance came to increase funding, I am glad this legislature reversed the misguided decision to cut it in the first place.

But more is needed.

A Final Note

20 Years ago, Putnam County was the 3rd Fastest Growing County in New York. Now?

It’s Dying. Population in every age demographic under 65+ since 2010 is in STEEP decline.

Young families aren’t coming here, and our seniors who built this county now can’t afford to stay.

All while the county sits on $90,000,000 in an unassigned fund balance account in its continued “Tax and Hoard” behavior.

But it doesn’t have to be this way…

“It’s time for putting People over Politics, and stop doing things the way we have always done them. I’ve had enough of being Forced to live with Putnam’s Problems. Join me in the Fight to realize Putnam’s Potential.”

Brett Yarris, For The People Candidate for District 5 Legislator

Until next time,

People, Not Politics
