Fairfield Minuteman, Wednesday, July 10, 2013
Board of Finance Member Mary LeClerc, CPA, ABV, CVA, has announced her intention to seek re-election.
“After much thought and consideration I am excited to announce my run for re-election to the Board of Finance,” says Mary. She brings to the Board over 25 years of financial and accounting experience as a Certified Public Accountant and a Certified Valuation Analyst.
Mary currently serves as the most senior member on the Board, as she nears completion of my second six-year term. “I am proud of my legacy of working to improve fiscal responsibility and implementing long term financial planning. My husband, Bryan and I met at Fairfield University and we choose to remain in Fairfield and raise our family here. I encouraged my parents to move here to retire because of all of the wonderful things Fairfield has to offer. I believe in Fairfield, that it is truly a special place and one of the best places in our country to live. I will continue to work to keep Fairfield the town I love for generations to come,” says Mary.
If re-elected in November, Mary plans to continue to control taxes through slowing the rate of spending growth, address long-term unfunded liabilities, make prudent investment in infrastructure and maintain and improve our undesignated fund balance in order to maintain our AAA bond rating.
Mary received a Bachelor of Science degree in accounting with a minor in computer applications from Fairfield University. She is a NACVA Certified Valuation Analyst and is accredited in Business Valuation by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
She has worked in public accounting since her college graduation in 1984. For the last 16 years Mary has practiced locally in Fairfield County, working with regional and small businesses, not for profits, and individuals, and has extensive experience in audit, tax, business valuation and consulting.
“I see first-hand how the decisions we make on the Board of Finance affect my neighbors, friends and clients, and their families and business. They affect my parents, my family and me as well.”
“My husband, Bryan and I have owned our home in Fairfield since 1989 and are the proud parents of two children, Sarah, 18, and Christopher, 15. Sarah is an alumnus of Fairfield Ludlowe High School and Christopher is a Junior there as well. Both attended Riverfield Elementary School and Roger Ludlowe Middle School.”
“My entire family has made a long term commitment to community service. I have served on the Board of Finance, Board of Assessment Appeals, and Republican Town Committee. I have also served on numerous committees such as the Town’s audit committee, operational audit committee, Metro Center review committee, the Board of Finance representative to the Elementary building committee and the Elementary School Space Task Force. I am a member and past Treasurer of the Mill Plain Improvement Society, and Fairfield Ludlowe High School PTA.”
Mary LeClerc has been endorsed by Selectman Kevin Kiley and Board of Finance Chairman Tom Flynn.
She will finance her own campaign. In lieu of political contributions, Mary has requested that supporters make a charitable contribution to a local not for profit organization of their choice.
