Town Supervisor Sue T. Crane
Candidate for Re-election
“For almost fourteen years
I have been privileged to serve the citizens of Red Hook as an
elected official, first as Councilwoman and more recently as Town
Supervisor. I would be honored to serve as Town Supervisor for
another four years.”
“I have enjoyed and developed diverse relationships throughout our
community and region. As the Town’s chief administrator, the past
four years have provided me unique opportunities to work
cooperatively with town board members, employees, staff,
andvolunteers, as well as officials from other municipalities,
including local, county and state. Together we continue to develop
strategies to provide programs, services and infrastructure that
will serve residents for generations. During my term as Town
Supervisor, I have obtained the confidence of local residents who
realize I have a strong work ethic and am committed to honesty,
civility, and fairness. I appreciate and am ever mindful of this
place we all call home. In public office, much can be gained by
being a sensitive servant to those who call on us for help.
Residents of Red Hook are aware I am accessible and willing to
listen.”
“Recent years have been financially challenging to us all. Coping
with these challenges will require a person who is experienced,
balanced and demonstrates caring strength. Government officials are
called upon to be responsible and creative; they also must be
willing to take a ‘ leap of faith’. Sometimes that can mean
accepting help from volunteers who offer their experience, talent
and wisdom. Red Hook is blessed with friends and neighbors who
regularly come forward to assist in countless ways and with
unexpected generosity.”
“Much has been achieved: affordable senior housing, expansion of our
recreation park, safe sidewalks, farmland and historic preservation,
upgrades of town equipment and infrastructure including town hall
and roadways, investment in sustainable technology and programs, a
community preservation fund program, collaboration with local
municipalities, partnerships with local land trusts and creation of
improved communication across generations, interests, education and
cultures. Still to be achieved is the completion of zoning code
updates and new construction of a much-needed highway garage.
Together, we still have much to accomplish.”
“A strong, effective elected official must build relationships that
are founded on trust. Americans of all ages long for leaders who are
respected and dependable. I am a registered Republican who, for
fourteen years, has enjoyed the respect and friendship of members of
the Republican, Democratic, Independence, and Conservative Parties.
I invite the support of all who believe that local public servants
need not be constrained by labels. I want
to continue serving Red Hook citizens as their Town Supervisor and
will be honored to receive support for reelection.”
