Suffield Democratic Town Committee
Roger Ives – WPCA
Experience and Qualifications: I have been a member of the WPCA for almost five years. I have served on the planning committee and now on the personnel committee which is currently in negotiations with the employee’s union. I have been active in the Connecticut state employee union movement and have experience in labor relations. I retired in 2009 from state employment.
Education: I have bachelor degree from the University of Connecticut College of Agriculture and Natural Resources in animal science.
Family: My family has lived in Suffield since 1956. My siblings and myself were educated in the Suffield school system.
Community Involvement: I am on the board of the Friends of the Farm at Hilltop (FOFAH). I am the Assistant Treasurer of the CSEA Council 400 State Retirees.
I believe that the WPCA should be run in the most cost-effective basis for the Suffield sewer users. This means investing in modernizing the plant and collection system and utilizing pro-active management. A priority should also be in training and retaining technically skilled employees.
