A confident Mark Lauretti easily won re-election to a 12th term as Shelton’s mayor Tuesday, defeating Democrat David Gioiello by more than a 3‑to‑1 margin.
In fact, after the last vote totals were tallied by Republican supporters at the party’s campaign headquarters on Howe Avenue, Lauretti quipped that “we still have a lot of work to do,” because over 2,000 Shelton voters voted against him.
Lauretti, who was first elected in 1991, credited his winning streak to a record of tight fiscal governance and low taxes.

In two years the Town of Seymour has seen a tremendous amount of growth and progress as a direct result of the policies implemented by Kurt Miller and his team.
Properties that had remained empty for years are now being filled. Eyesores and embarrassing problems are being addressed, most notably the cleanup and redevelopment of the burnt husk that was once the Housatonic Wire Factory.

Four years ago, I was elected First Selectman of the Town of Seymour. The two years that I served in that capacity and the prior four years that I served on the Board of Selectmen, were among the most rewarding of my life.
The privilege of public service is something that I always hoped would happen.

Dear Editor:
I hope that the people of the Town of Seymour do not simply sit back and allow the Republican party to control the Boards for which there are Democratic candidates on the ballot for election on November 5th.

It has been my privilege to serve Seymour’s residents for the past two years as a member of the Board of Selectmen. The Board has accomplished numerous goals, I have learned much, and being part of the team has been a rewarding experience.
A few people have questioned the progress of economic development in Seymour. Seymour has made, and will continue to make, strides in cleaning up dilapidated properties and bringing business to town.

Although the Seymour Democratic Town Committee is unable to find a candidate to seek the position of First Selectman this year due to their family, work and personal commitments of several individuals who expressed an interest in seeking the position, I do hope that the people of Seymour will vote for the Democratic Candidates for the Board of Selectmen.
I am well aware of the responsibilities and challenges of the Board of Selectmen as a present member of that Board and as the State Representative for the 105th District.

Throughout my life, involvement in the community and civic service has been guiding principles for the Klarides Family. I was born and raised in Seymour and I have always tried to give back to the community that has given so much to me. My family and I have owned and managed small businesses and properties throughout the area. This has given me a wealth of experience in fiscal responsibility and proper management practices.
I have also served in various volunteer positions over the years. At Quinnipiac University, my alma mater, I served on the Board of Governors. In Seymour, I have served at the Seymour Animal Shelter, the Building Review Committee, and one term on the Board of Selectmen as Deputy First Selectwoman.

The Seymour Democratic Party does not have a candidate for First Selectman this year however it has nominated a strong slate of candidates to fill positions on every Board.
To allow the public to become with familiar with these candidates and their positions we have invited the Republican Party to participate in a series of debates.
To date, they have refused to do so.
