Re-Elect Anthony Weber
I have been a resident of Avon for over a decade. During that time, my wife and I have enjoyed watching our two children progress through and graduate from Avon Public Schools. While there, we were able to witness them engage in all the varied activities that Avon has to offer. Education has been an important part of our family, which extends to both my wife’s and my careers in teaching. Whether it is leading a 4th grade classroom, or volunteering for Bike Walk Avon, or coaching on the wrestling mat, I believe in the power of service and collaboration. I have had the honor of serving on Avon’s Town Council since 2019, and would be grateful to serve for a 4th term. When I’m not teaching or spending time with my family, I enjoy hiking New England’s trails, working around the home, and taking long-distance motorcycle tours.
Why I’m Running
I am running for re-election as a caring and invested resident of Avon who will strive for transparency in governance, developing and connecting our vibrant and diverse community, and ensuring that our town is a place that all are welcome to live, work, and play. I believe in citizen governance and that creative solutions to our most challenging issues can come from any stakeholder. I believe in a town that works for all residents. As a member of Avon’s Town Council, I am committed to continue bringing the same pragmatic and solution-based approach that I have implemented in my classroom to the council chambers.
As Avon grows and changes, I believe it is important that town leaders think and plan for:
A sustainable future for our children
Attracting new commercial/business opportunities to existing zoned spaces in order to increase the grand list and keep our taxes low
Continued support for Avon’s emergency services, including funding for capital projects for the AFD and APD
Investment in and preservation of our parks, trails, paths, and open spaces
Maintaining our roads, sidewalks, and other critical infrastructure
