To the Editor:
We thank you for your open letter in the TDB on Nov. 12, 2010 congratulating us on winning back our seats on the Polk County Board of Commissioners. We’re especially glad that you are looking forward to working with us.
It will be our honor to serve our citizens by working with you on finding solutions to the issues facing the county. You so rightly stated that during the campaign, we openly and honestly presented to the citizens the fact that we had ideas and plans on how to save taxpayers money and cut spending at the same time. We do have plans that if put in place will improve and increase the opportunities for bringing jobs to Polk County, thus improving our local economy.
Beginning Monday night, Dec. 6, after the swearing-in ceremony, we will be anxious to get to the business of working for the folks of this great county and trust that there will be honesty and openness in all our debates.
God bless America and God bless Polk County.
— Ted B. Owens and Tom Pack
