To the Editor:
I am writing in support of the election of George Ferguson to the Legislative Council from District 1.
I have worked with George on the Conservation Commission for two years now and have found him to be very invested in the future of Newtown. Not only has George been very involved in conservation issues, but he has also served to provide a link between Conservation and other town boards and commissions. He knows how town government works and has always been willing to bridge the gap.
One of Georgeâs major strengths is the ability to think outside the box. He is creative in approach and yet detail-oriented enough to make things happen.
I think the Newtown Legislative Council would benefit from his experience and broad vision.
