Editor, New Canaanite;
Electing Colm Dobbyn to our Town Council this November makes tremendous sense.
Colm brings a strongly analytical mind (a highly successful corporate attorney specializing in intellectual property rights and technology), coupled with a well-founded sense of what makes New Canaan such a special and vital community (a 24-year resident with more than a decade serving on our Inlands Wetlands Commission) together with a commitment to open and transparent governance conducted with respect and civility.
I have known Colm for more than a decade and had the privilege of serving with him on the town’s Wetlands Commission for seven of those years.
He works hard on behalf of our town, and represents the kind of talent and leadership we need on—and that Colm will bring to the Town Council. New Canaan needs Colm’s talent, dedication, and intellect to help lead our town through the challenging and potentially difficult times ahead.
He deserves our vote in November.
Respectfully,
George Blauvelt
