JEAN JACOBS

WORKING FOR YOU

I had the opportunity to attend the Kingston City School District Press Conference last evening at the Cioni Building on Crown Street. My attendance supported the educational system, the students, the educators, and the taxpayers. I felt compelled to speak on behalf of education and my role as a parent having partnered with the Kingston City School District for over 35 years of my life, in many different capacities.

During this time as a LEADER, I took great pride in my accomplishments working in the best interest of the Kingston City School District and the Community at Large.

I will keep you informed and updated in the weeks ahead. I seriously urge the general public to consider running for the Kingston City School District Board of Education this year. There will be 4 Board of Education Seats up for election. This will allow you the opportunity to have a voice and become involved in your community and the education of our students.

WORKING FOR YOU "THE PEOPLE"

Ladies and Gentlemen I was honored and compelled to attend the Press Conference on Tuesday February 15, 2011 at City Hall. I had the privilege to speak with many of the State Representatives and personally spoke with New York State Comptroller, Thomas P. DiNapoli regarding the present situation. When Comptroller DiNapoli opened up questions and answers from the public, I stood up and spoke on behalf of the taxpayers.

During my Professional Career as a Finance Director for many years, I have had the opportunity to work with many distinguished Auditing Firms throughout New York State. I have also worked directly with the New York State Division of Finance on many pilot projects for many years. One constant critical component was creating the position of governance and institutional management on a daily basis and protecting the budget process with proper checks and balances in place, for the very purpose of audit and control.

I urge each and every one of you to hold the public officials accountable who manage and govern your money each and every day. Demand that that they implement audit and control requirements that protect the tax payers and their money.

Political Leadership A Shared Responsibility

Honorable Mayor James Sottile and Jean Jacobs former Chairman City of Kingston Republican Party on February 3, 2011 at the State of the City address.

HONORABLE MAYOR JAMES SOTTILE

"WE WILL MOVE FORWARD TOGETHER"

I had the privilege last evening to attend our Mayors 2011 State of The City Address. A very powerful lesson I achieved last evening in listening to our Mayor, was the fact that, "We will move forward together or not at all for the challenges we face are bigger than party, and bigger than politics".

"MAYORS QUOTE"

“As I enter my last term of office I am reminded daily that Kingston is a special place,” Sottile said. . . “It is my dream that Kingston will carry on with hope and courage focusing on a bright future that lies ahead. “

This is the "Vision" everyone should embrace and respect the fact that our city deserves Leaders who have a "VISION FOR THE FUTURE" by restoring a sense of HOPE and PRIDE to the people, which is paramount at this time.

I personally thank Mayor James Sottile, Mayor of the City of Kingston, for his last nine years of service and I wish him continued success in all of his future endeavors.

Sincerely,

Jean C. Jacobs

Former, Republican City Chairman
