I joined the Garrett for Westfield team as campaign manager because as a trusted and valued friend, I wanted to support Denise in her efforts to make a difference in Westfield. As I have watched Denise evolve as a candidate, I am now even more steadfast in my belief that she is the better candidate ...

I am deeply disappointed that Mayor Shelley Brindle has decided to end the popular town-wide service of bulky waste home pickup. As a Westfield Councilman back in 1993, I worked with the mayor and council to have the town offer this service for the first time to Westfield residents. Both Republican ...

When I heard Amanda Como was running for town council, my immediate reaction was, “Yes! This makes perfect sense!” For nearly 10 years, since our kids were in pre-school, I have been lucky to call Amanda my friend. We have taken our daughters to girls’ leadership workshops together, she has coached ...
