First Selectman Kevin Moynihan and Selectman Nick Williams have consistently been innovative, respectful, ‘Can Do’ listeners who get things done for all of New Canaan. They have earned our votes. Have a question? An idea? Send them an email, or better yet, give them a call.
I often wonder: What happened to all the elected officials who, with quiet competence, show up for work and just get the job done? Well, New Canaan is fortunate to have such a person in the form our town’s treasurer, Andrew Brooks. His consistent success as our treasurer is demonstrated through his management of the town’s investments and bank relationships, which have generated over a million and a half dollars of tax savings. In addition, Andrew Brooks has streamlined the town’s bank relationships, and helped with risk identification and remediation. A highly trained and experienced consultant to major corporations in finance and risk management, Andrew Brooks has exactly the resume New Canaan needs in a treasurer.
I urge my fellow New Canaanites to join me and elect Kevin Moynihan our first selectman. Why is he best suited for the job? I cite two key reasons: character and competence. We all want our elected officials to be of good character. But what does that entail?
