I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to the voters of Southbury for once again placing their trust in me to serve on the Board of Selectmen. It is an honor to continue representing this remarkable community—one that values thoughtful leadership, collaboration, and a shared commitment to keeping Southbury the great town that it is.
Over the past decade, Southbury has built a strong foundation rooted in fiscal responsibility, smart planning, and a deep respect for our town’s character. As I begin this new term, I remain committed to being a fiscal watchdog—ensuring that every taxpayer dollar is spent wisely and transparently. Sound financial stewardship is essential to preserving the services we depend on while keeping our town affordable for all residents.
Equally important, I will continue to work to make sure that Town Hall is a place where problems are solved—not created. Our residents deserve a local government that listens, collaborates, and delivers results. Working together, we can continue to strengthen our town while preserving the values and sense of community that define Southbury.
Thank you again for your confidence and your continued partnership in shaping our community’s future.
— Jason Van Stone
Southbury Board of Selectmen
