Testimonials
The words teamwork, honesty, integrity and listening are very easy to say. Actually living the intent of these words in your daily actions is much more difficult to achieve. Wayne Drysdale lives these words, on a daily basis, as demonstrated by his actions. I can speak to this based on my ten years of experience with Wayne as I worked with him to ensure our communities were kept safe.
Wayne's leadership was instrumental and his commitment unshakeable when it came to achieving the safest communities possible with respect to the County, MD, City, as well as all of the Hamlets, Towns, and Villages of our region. A consistent and regional approach for all was the goal, and that is what was achieved.
Wayne didn't lead us through what it took to achieve our goals; he did something more powerful and more effective by sharing leadership responsibility with us, and working with us to achieve success. You can choose to listen to words that speak to teamwork, honesty, integrity and listening; or you can choose to work with someone who lives them, and who will require the same of you. Based on experience of success that has been achieved, my choice is easy, and yours can be too. Vote Wayne Drysdale.

One of Wayne's priorities is to ensure there is a long term care program for the elderly.

More long term care beds are desperately needed in the area especially as our aging population increases and the waitlists continue to grow for housing.
