Redding Republicans advocate an excellent, progressive, innovative, and balanced education for our children. We support a challenging curriculum with an outstanding staff; to be supplemented with productive academic, athletic, and artistic pursuits. We believe in setting ambitious educational goals, requiring accountability in achieving them, and maintaining vigilant control of costs. Commitment to Conservation:
Redding Republicans believe we must preserve the rural character of our community, through fair and effective enforcement of our land-use regulations. We favor prudent acquisition of open space for passive and active recreational uses, while ensuring a safe, pristine, environment for our precious water resources. We advocate local energy efficiency and conservation for all town buildings as well as promoting renewable energy. Accountability & Responsibility:

Redding Republicans believe we must manage our financial resources carefully and prudently. We respect the taxpayer's ability to fund expenditures. We will aggressively pursue Redding's equitable share of State and Federal services and revenues, including grants. We are committed to open, ethical, and accountable local government and support bipartisan efforts to provide the best environment for all Redding citizens. Redding Republicans support local candidates who, without interference from Washington or Hartford, put the interests of Redding first. After all, Redding residents know what is best for our town.
