“I am proud of my service to Madison and I hope to continue to serve the town as First Selectman.  My work in the Commercial Recording Division of the Secretary of State’s Office, which serves the business community of Connecticut , gives me a unique blend of experience in business and in government,” he said.  “By implementing efficiencies, updating the organizational structure and streamlining functions, I was able to significantly improve the division’s service to Connecticut’s businesses.  We can easily apply these principles to Madison, improving our efficiency and striving for excellence in Madison’s service to its constituents.”

“I look forward to a vigorous campaign focused on how we can maximize our opportunities, think outside the box and how we can stop simply talking about our longstanding issues and instead, take action to address them.”
