“We built a new highway department and senior center, we continue to improve services in water and sewer, and we’re developing new wells, with another coming online here soon. Charlie and his boards have touched every aspect of the town and really made it a wonderful place to live,” Menendez said. “And I love the people here. I have a family here, with children and grandchildren, and Crawford is what a local town should be. It’s people that know each other, appreciate each other, and enjoy being in the town together. It’s like a small family.”

“As I always stress, we’ve been a town which has stayed under the 2 percent state tax cap every year that it’s been in place. And we’re proud of that, because we don’t want to do a lot of things, then go back and demand more funding from residents,” Menendez said. “We’re just going to continue the work that Charlie and the previous board started, where every aspect of the town is improved or enhanced, so that the people who live here enjoy living here.”

Said the town has stayed under New York's 2 percent state tax cap to avoid seeking additional funding from residents.
