To the editor:

I’m writing to voice my support of Lindy Ellis for Franklin County legislator. As director of the Saranac Lake Youth Center, I’ve worked with Lindy on various projects and issues, including improving pedestrian safety at the Church Street/Woodruff Street intersection. She has helped me find different funding opportunities for the youth center that I may not have known about. She volunteers every year at our largest fundraiser, the Olga Memorial Footrace. Lindy is also well known among many of our teens and young adults as she was instrumental in getting the SkatePark constructed in Saranac Lake, and she works hard to keep it maintained.

Lindy is always out and about in the community, and it is very apparent that she is someone who cares about the people, listens to their stories and provides constructive feedback and solutions to problems we have. When I cast my vote, it is always going to be for a candidate who hears what I have to say and works hard for the people. Lindy IS that person. Please vote Lindy Ellis for Franklin County legislator on Nov. 5!
