Opinion: Sullivan, Fasulo For Wilmington Selectmen

The following is a letter to the editor of Patch:

April 13, 2019

Dear Fellow Wilmington Residents,

Town Selectmen are more than just volunteers. They have positional power and literally make decisions that will shape the look, feel, and culture of our town forever. They also have direct and/or indirect influence over just about every board in town. Because of these reasons, I’m voting for two people who I wholeheartedly trust to do what is right for Wilmington and its residents. These two people are Suzanne Sullivan and Rob Fasulo.

I met Suzanne Sullivan and Rob Fasulo a few years ago, when the 362 Middlesex proposal emerged in front of the current Board of Selectmen. It didn’t take long to realize just how much they care for this town and the residents. Their commitment to stand up for what’s right and speak up to help others has been nothing less than remarkable. Their understanding of the complexities of our town’s rules, regulations, and bylaws will ensure that citizens come first, and everyone will be treated fairly and equally.

One of their top priorities is to clean up the contaminated Olin site. And for me, this has been a long time coming. They’re also very focused on retaining open space in Wilmington because once it’s gone, it’s gone.

It’s time for change in Wilmington government and Suzanne Sullivan and Rob Fasulo are this change. Vote with me for Suzanne Sullivan and Rob Fasulo—your voice will be heard.

Sincerely,
Kelly Richards
