Elm City is seeking relief from more than $80,000 in state fines for wastewater violations, arguing the penalties hinder needed repairs, as the town faces ongoing issues with over-applied sprayfields.

Since there seemed to be quite a bit of interest in the quick photo from my phone of Lake Wilson, I came back with my camera today to get better shots for you. I really love taking landscape photos. And there is much more fall color showing in the trees at WL than in Elm City just yet, so these are nice because where there is still water right now, you can see the color of the trees reflecting back in a pretty way. Of course, nothing beats looking at nature with your own eyes, but hope you enjoy these too. 💛💚💙

10 days left until early voting begins! This is a sample ballot for citizens living in the Town of Elm City. There are 3 important things to remember!

1. You will have 3 options on the ballot for 1 mayoral seat; however, Travis Lee Holloman has publicly withdrawn his bid for the mayoral race. So you have a choice between the remaining two options who are still running for mayor.

2. You will choose 5 people from the 11 options listed for commissioners to fill those 5 seats. The majority vote of this council predominately decides the direction in which our local government moves. When a commissioner is absent from a vote and the votes come up tied, then the mayor will vote to offset the tie. Please use your vote to it's fullest capacity in the commissioner section.

3. Last, but not least, you will have the option to approve an amendment to amend our town charter to give elected officials a longer term in office, from 2 years to 4 years. Read this referendum carefully! The wording might be tricky. A vote for "yes" means you are approving a 4 year term. A vote for "no" means you do not approve a 4 year term and you want to keep the term set at 2 years. This hasn't been discussed much, but seeing the wording now may help clear up any confusion for you later on.

The rest is for each of you to decide. Be sure you make a plan to vote and go vote. You are the ultimate authority over your town's future. ❤️
