By Susan Cools is promising to bring transparency to the Town of Hempstead in her bid for the town clerk's post — especially when it comes to spending taxpayers' money. Cools said that many of her fellow community members are unclear about how the town spends their tax money, which spurred her decision last month to run for the clerkship in November. Cools is running as a Democrat against incumbent Republican Kate Murray. Cools, who manages a real estate company in Rockville Centre with her daughter, Samantha, said she believes the role of clerk is the closest to the voters.
