May 11, 2009 ♦ Board of Selectman ♦ Re-Elect Curt Plante

For Bolton Selectman

Hi I'm Curt and I'm running for re-election for the Board of Selecman in Bolton.  As a lifetimeresident of Bolton I have watched this town grow from a small town of less than 1000 residents to its current size (still a small town though).  My grammar school years were spent in the Emerson and Houghton buildings and high school at Nashoba Regional.  I went on to college at Northeastern University and Boston Architectural Center.  I live in town with my wife Holly and two step-daughters who attend Nashoba Regional High School and College of Charleston.

If you would like to discuss anything with me prior to casting your vote please email me at curtplante@comcast.net or call me at 978-779-5400.

Bolton continues to face challenges balancing the lack of revenue growth with the expanding expenses and project growth within the community.  I see some new and some continued specfic areas needing attention over the next few years while the economy continues to struggle for stability.
