Tim Theriault
Board of Finance

I feel I have been very blessed to have been raised in Southington from 1967 to 1989. After spending 17 years in Texas, and returning to Southington in 2007, I was able to look at this wonderful town with a new perspective. Southington has so much to offer for families, from great schools and parks, to a thriving downtown and other avenues of entertainment. My wife Kelly and I felt it was important to raise our family here during our children’s formative years, to instill a sense of family, community, and pride in our town. Our oldest child will be returning to Derynoski this year, and our daughter will be starting preschool at Saint Thomas, so we have a vested interest in the continued success of Southington schools.

I am running for a position on the Board of Finance for several reasons. First and foremost, the time I have spent either managing or owning physical therapy clinics has emphasized the importance of having sound finances for continued success. Today’s current state and national political situations have taught me that it is not enough to sit on the sidelines and either assume or hope that elected officials will consistently place the interests of their constituents first. I believe it is important to give back to a town that has given me so much. I will bring an emphasis on fiscal discipline, as I believe a solid foundation for the future of our town is based on the financial decisions made today. I look forward to serving this great town as a member of the Board of Finance.
