To the editor:
It is time to restore transparency and competent leadership to Greenwich town government. Nowhere is that need greater than in our town's continued failure to make public its emergency planning and response, as your columnist Bob Horton detailed in an excellent series of articles on the subject. First Selectman Peter Tesei has demonstrably failed that test of leadership. During the latest storms, Mr. Tesei has insisted on maintaining an undue level of secrecy surrounding these plans, which have left countless residents in the dark wondering who's in charge and what services will or won't be delivered.
As Mr. Horton wrote, it is "folly...having a public official dedicated to directing the town's emergency response and then deciding to keep it a secret from the people it is designed to protect (and who paid for it)."
My vote this November will go to first selectman candidate John Blankley. John has over 40 years of top flight business experience in major public companies, and his working in the world of public company disclosure insures that Greenwich town government will see a return to transparency and competence that has been so sorely lacking. Please join me in voting for John Blankley.
