Camillo to Announce Re-Election Bid Monday, Citing Bipartisan Record and Vision for Greenwich

First Selectman Fred Camillo will officially launch his re-election campaign Monday, July 14, at 4:30 p.m. on the front lawn of the Board of Education Building on Greenwich Avenue, inviting supporters to hear the news in person.

Confirming the plan in an interview this morning, Camillo underscored his record of bipartisan work and his vision for Greenwich as a model for Connecticut.

“I not only love the job, but I love serving my hometown,” he said. “We’ve gotten a lot of the things we said we’d work on in December of 2019 either done or in the midst of getting done. That makes me very proud.”

Camillo emphasized his approach to collaboration locally and even on contentious state-level issues like housing mandates, where he works to mitigate the effect of potentially negative legislation on Greenwich. “I reached out to Bob Duff and Jason Rojas (both authors of parts of the 5002 Hartford omnibus housing bill). We had a great conversations,” Camillo said, describing his relationship with top legislative Democrats. “Even something as controversial as that, if you have open lines of communication, where a lot of people don’t, that helps. My opponents did not have those connections, especially across the aisle. I do, and I’m proud of that. That comes with time and effort and a lot of sweat equity.”
