Hello Hooksett Town residents, I would like to see the newly elected town counselors use a conservative view/approach to help slow tax hikes and unneeded spending. It's time to stop blanket spending. 

As a small business owner for over 30 years, I understand the importance of cautious spending to control overhead. If I'm elected, I will work in the town residents' best interest to control spending and reduce the tax burden where the budget allows. I've lived in Hooksett since 2011 and have seen uncontrolled spending not in the residents' best interests. I will work hard to hold department heads accountable for their budgets and necessary spending to help reduce tax increases.

Please show up and vote on March 11th to help control and lower taxes in our Great Town of Hooksett Thank you, David Smith

I’m Yury Polozov, and I live in Hooksett with my wife and three kids. I’ve had the privilege of being elected twice to represent Hooksett at the State House, and I’ve joined the Hooksett Planning Board as an alternate member. I’m running because I want to use my analytical mindset, developed through my work in IT, to address the rapid growth of budgets and taxes. With my experience navigating local fees, as well as county and state budgets, I believe I am well-equipped to make a positive impact and serve the community effectively.

My name is Pamela McMahon, and I am running for Library Trustee.  For nearly 20 years, I have been a proud resident of Hooksett, raising my two sons while staying actively involved in our community through school, sports, and town activities.

As a middle school teacher at a public charter school, I have worn many hats in education. A lifelong learner, I am passionate about fostering growth, enrichment, and a well-rounded life. Coming from a single-income household, I am acutely aware of the impact of the rising cost of living and the burden on taxpayers.

I recognize the library as a vital resource that supports educational and recreational needs. As a teacher, I know the importance of providing resources and opportunities for learning, and I am dedicated to ensuring that our library continues to thrive. My goal as Library Trustee is to make thoughtful decisions that consider accessibility and financial sustainability, finding a healthy balance for our community.

As the son of two public school teachers, education has always been a passion of mine. I have spent most of my adult life educating myself or teaching others. Whether it was as an instructor in the military, volunteering as a tutor, or teaching engineering classes, education has always been a priority in my life. I want to bring that same passion for education to the Hooksett schools, while also bringing my executive business experience to ensure resources are being utilized as effectively as possible for the benefit of the children.

I'm a veteran who served 12 years with multiple combat tours. I've managed budgets in the private sector that are larger than the school budget. I'm also a dad of three young boys. The most important thing to me is that our children are prepared to be adults and that they have all the tools they need.

I also believe we can streamline our systems in order to deliver on that goal with less waste for taxpayers. Elect me to the school board, and I'll fight for the kids and the taxpayers. That's the only way to balance the tradeoffs in order to deliver for both constituencies.
