Everyone’s running unopposed in McDonough
McDONOUGH – In the Town of McDonough, the town’s supervisor, two town councilmen, the clerk and highway superintendent are all running for re-election without opposition.
Supervisor Arrington Canor is seeking his third, 2-year term in office.
“As a councilman for six years and town supervisor for several, I have always tried to keep taxes as low as possible and still keep the town running smoothly,” Canor said.
The town leader realizes that this will be even more of a challenge in coming years.
“These next few years will be most challenging as the state is going through a fiscal crisis and the towns get the bill for it,” he said, particularly with dropping sales tax revenues, un-funded state mandates and rising retirement costs.
Canor, who has been a McDonough resident for more than two decades, said he has decided to run again for the town’s top leadership position because of his personal feelings for the town and its people.
“It's really a beautiful place to live, and I and my family love it here,” he said. “We realize what we have and I want to preserve it.”
According to the supervisor, maintaining the town’s highway system will remain a priority for him going forward. Heavy rain falls in the latter part of the summer caused extensive damage to McDonough’s roads. While the damage has largely been repaired, the work carried with it a hefty price tag.
“We hope to get the money from FEMA, but who knows when,” he said.
Town Councilmen Harvey DeForest is seeking his third 4-year term and John Tracy his fifth.
Town Clerk Donna Preston and Larry H. Beckwith, who has served as Town Highway Superintendent for 17 of the last 19 years, are also running for re-election unopposed.
