We encourage all citizens to Vote No on the $1.36 million tax increase. Remember to Vote on Saturday, June 14th at the Old High School/New Middle School!
In yet another override election, the voters of Bridgewater have rejected the proposed $1.36 million tax override. The voters have been consistent in their demand for reforms and for the Town to better control its spending, and we hope that our Town officials finally begin to listen. We also truly hope that this puts the […]
The taxpayers of Bridgewater have been subjected to four separate override votes in the past 4 years. They keep putting tax hikes on the ballot, we keep voting them down, and they never learn.

I’m not just referring to their transparent attempts to declare their override as fiscally responsible, but I’m referring to their continuing efforts to steal and damage lawn signs opposing the current override. We are a volunteer organization that is just […]
We keep hearing how this override is different. It’s supposed to be part of a 3-point plan that will solve all of Bridgewater’s problems.
