Dear Fellow Citizens, Selectboard Members, Other Elected Officials and Employees of the Town of Alford.

I am announcing my decision this evening to not seek re-election as a Selectman in May, 2010. Also, I will not accept a nomination or serve, if elected, by write-in ballot for the upcoming term. It was an honor to first be elected to this office in 2002 to replace the late Chairman, Clyde S. Brown. I have enjoyed working on behalf of the town on several fronts.

I first became involved in the Town of Alford in the late 1990’s when I was appointed an Associate Member of the Conservation Commission. I worked with fellow Associate Member, Michael Wilcox, and the full commission to bring about the successful passage in Alford of the Scenic Mountain Act.

As many of you know, I have several other commitments to local organizations in the near-term, personal business matters will demand more time than they have in recent years.

I look forward to a vibrant election process to produce, hopefully, several candidates for elective positions in May. I thank all who have supported me in previous elections. I wish all, involved in serving the Town of Alford, well in their continuing service.

Yours truly,

 Thomas K. Doyle, Sr.
