Letter: Matt Raimondi For Wilton Finance Board, by Toni Boucher

Letter to the Editor, September 7, 2021

It is not often that someone comes along with the passion to serve their community like Matt Raimondi. Not only does Matt have the financial experience to serve on Wilton’s Board of Finance, but he also has the ethics, integrity and compassion sorely needed in todays’ political climate. In addition, he has shown his dedication by giving his time to the Kennedy Children’s Center, REACH Institute and the Board of the Friends of Sherwood Island.

When I learned that Matt, a Wilton High School graduate, had bought a house with his new wife and was looking to serve our town, I was delighted and grateful. We need the next generation to step up.

His priorities are essential to preserving and enchaining our community: protecting property values by maintaining a reasonable mill rate; exercising responsible oversight of the budget, promoting fiscal responsibility, and prudent spending; supporting improvement and maintenance of our towns infrastructure; maintaining Wilton’s AAA rating and pension funding level; and, preserving Wilton’s top rated schools.

I have been involved in local government for many years and know talent when I see it. I hope you will join me in voting for Matt Raimondi on November 2.
