The Background and Knowledge


I am in support of Bruce Farmer (R) for a seat on the police commission and I’ll tell you why. Bruce has always been a strong Clinton advocate. Learning about a potential problem in town and then helping to rectify it in a cost-effective manner is his typical approach.

He has held positions on the Board of Finance, Zoning Board of Appeals, and Inland Wetlands Commission and served as first selectman from 2015 to 2017. He has been an advocate for senior citizens and other non-profits. Bruce has had 45 years experience in the business world, retiring in 2009. He will bring experience to the police commission that includes being a distinguished insurance professional specializing in catastrophic loss of life management. He is familiar with the National Incident Management System and the Department of Emergency Management and Homeland Security. He also has been a certified management meetings facilitator.

For all of the above reasons. I believe Bruce has the background and knowledge to be a helpful and productive member of the police commission.
