  • Fairfield resident for over 17 years at 90 Southwood Road
  • Married to Janet Scott Brogan
  • Three children, ages 18, 17 and 12 (two in Fairfield Public Schools)
  • Joined RTM in January, 2009
  • Member, RTM Public Works and Planning (2009 – 2011)
  • Vice Chairman, RTM Senior Tax Relief Special Committee  (2010)
  • Secretary to the RTM Public Health & Safety Committee (2009)
  • Member RTM Pension Review Special Committee (2009)
  • Graduated from Georgetown University with an economics degree and Boston University with a law degree
  •  Deputy General Counsel for a local  corporation

My family and I feel very fortunate to live in Fairfield.  Serving on the RTM allows me to give something back to the community.  In my RTM activities, I am  guided by the desire to maintain the quality of services provided by the Town, and to assure that the Town grows with financial responsibility and concern for the quality of life of all residents.  As a corporate lawyer for over 27 years, I am  experienced in critically analyzing proposals and cooperatively working to achieve practical, cost effective solutions. This fits in well with the responsibilities of the RTM.  I have worked on the committee that revised the Senior Tax Relief ordinance to give more assistance to our senior citizens, and I helped re-write the  ordinance that governs the Town pension funds.  I hope to remain on the RTM and continue to make such contributions.
