Wallace Critzer
Mr. Critzer is running for his second term on the council. He’s a fiftyyear resident of the town.
“And my mother was bom here,” he added, noting that she died in the same house in town 86 years later.
“If there are problems, I haven’t thought of any,” he said. “I like the town.”
Mr. Critzer doesn’t share the concern of other candidates about revenue source. “We have sources of revenue,” he said.
As far as the town water supply is concerned, “the water works fine,” he said.
William E. Wickens
Mr. Wickens is running for his second term as councilman.
“I’ve really enjoyed being on the council,” he said. “But, of course, I feel that our work isn’t finished yet.”
‘We’ve made real progress through our planning commission,” he continued, “But we need to have a comprehensive plan and to update our zoning ordinance. ”
‘We must continue to be on guard to preserve the character of the town,” Mr. Wickens said.
‘We must do it,” Mr. Wickens said about finding a source of revenue for the town. ‘We don’t need a large base, but we do need something.” He added jokingly that he’s not in favor of any raises for the council or the mayor. (Town councilmen presently receive $5.00 a month).
He noted that whatever source of funding established by council should not affect people on a fixed income.
“I think Washington is as perfect a place as there,is on this earth,” said Mr. Wickens. “I want to keep it that way.”
