Where’s Maureen?

I was pleased to see the townships, even Dumfries, fighting for some of the federal funding being distributed for homeland security after the 9-11 terrorist attacks. It was also good to see Supervisor Maureen Caddigan supporting their efforts. However, it’s been a long time since the town of Dumfries has seen or heard from Ms. Caddigan. She appears to have abandoned the people of Dumfries for the last 8 to 12 years, only to return at election time. There is more to the Dumfries District than just Montclair and planting flowers along the roads. Supervisor Caddigan should reacquaint herself with the boundary lines of her district and represent all the people all the time not just when election time comes around.
