Letter: Robin Bates-Mason Will Bring ‘Fresh Perspective’ to Town Council

By Janet Leung Fonss | October 16, 2019

Robin Bates-Mason has the leadership qualities and skill set that will bring a fresh perspective to our Town Council. A 20 year resident and mom of two in the New Canaan school system, Robin’s commitment to service is perhaps her strongest defining characteristic. The driving force in her efforts is her belief in sustainability, environmental preservation, and education – for our youth and for a better tomorrow. Between her work on League of Women Voters, Beautification League, Planet New Canaan, and more, Robin exemplifies the belief that the best way to contribute to our local community is directly. This value system rooted in volunteerism is just a component of what qualifies Robin for Town Council. With a background in banking and finance, she has the analytical skill set to make sound and thoughtful decisions. Robin is accustomed to looking at data, gathering information, and working with others to gain the best possible result. She is equally cogitative and collaborative. Robin has the right temperament for local government.
