From environmental and public safety, to consolidation and improved services
Selected initiatives and accomplishments during my first eight years in office:
Took on special interests and won: foreclosed on the Gilbert & Bennett Wire Mill in February 2021, protecting Redding’s interests and opening a path for the future redevelopment of the historic mill
Work begins anew at the Wire Mill: a $200,000 grant is funding environmental and infrastructure assessments, a prerequisite for future, larger grants
No tax increases for 3 years
New Revenue: $250,000 annually
Improved Services, Controlled Costs: re-organized departments, modernized operations, put services online
Protecting the Environment: $500,000+ in grants help to preserve Redding’s pristine natural resources
Transparency: Board of Finance and Board of Selectmen meetings are on public access tv Ch. 79 on accessible from the town website
Communication: Built Town Social Media presence to connect directly with residents and weekly updates.
Improved social services: with full time Director of Human Services
Bonded and completed: a large scale road reconstruction project
Rebuilt the town's 350+ page website as a comprehensive source of information
