At Our Service...
What's it like serving a first term in CT's General Assembly? Come hear a first-hand account from Matt Lesser, representing the 100th District ( the towns of Middlefield, Middletown, Rockfall and Durham) and sitting on the Energy & Technology and Environment committees.

People's Action for Clean Energy (PACE) named Representative Lesser a 'Rising Sun' for his "critical and effective support" of clean-energy policy during the 2009 legislative session. He also was awarded a 100 percent rating for his support and advocacy for environmental initiatives by the Connecticut League of Conservation Voters (CTLCV) in their 2009 Environmental Scorecard.

And a special invite for all municipal land use staff.... come meet Erica Larner, the Connecticut River Coastal Conservation District's new Natural Resource Specialist, your primary point of contact at the District for technical assistance and education on natural resource protection and management, including site plan reviews, on-site natural resource assessment, and technical training. Come put a face with her name and learn more about what she can do for your town, and enjoy the opportunity to network with your colleagues from other towns, along with the rest of the greens!
