QUESTION: Why are you running for office?

ROBINSON: To help direct and manage the problems that are facing Prospect, with my prior council experience.

VACCARELLO: Because of poor construction, sewer projects you have to pay for sewer facilities as recent as March, that fail to comply to current DEP and EPA parameters your sewer bill went from $28 to $62.50 per month and are going to increase.

QUESTION: What do you consider the pressing matters facing your municipality? How would you address them?

ROBINSON: Help resolve the sewage problem that is a major issue; that needs correction while making the community aware of the process through more community meetings.

I would also like to help the community grow — while maintaining its small-town charm.

VACCARELLO: Mismanagement has led to purchase of so much equipment that a committee is soliciting prices to build another building to house it. Uncontrolled and unfunded spending.

Once your tax bill was 2.2 mills, one of the lowest in Butler County. When is enough, enough? How much more can you afford? I live here too.
