Our town officials work on a shoestring. They rely heavily on the expertise and hard work of dedicated volunteers. Crumbling infrastructure isn’t just in Deerfield; it’s a national problem. Our Public Works staff is stretched beyond reason, trying to keep our roads — and our citizens — safe.

The climate change disasters we are experiencing can’t be foreseen in budgeting. We need the extra help that the authority to borrow up to $5 million can offer — if we need it. If not needed (because of other grant assistance), we don’t borrow!

Please do your part and vote “yes” next Tuesday, Jan. 16, at Town Hall, from 10 a.m. to 8p.m.!
