I have known Matt Nixon since 2012. First as a graduate student in our public policy and management classes where I admired his well-informed opinions and tact in policy debate. Later, we were colleagues in state government, and I was not surprised to learn he was nominated as Manager of the Year by then-Governor LePage. Most recently Matt has been giving back to our community by working on the Comprehensive Plan, and with me on the Topsham Solar Advocates. Matt has a career in public service and understands his role to work on behalf of the public and address public issues. I know Matt would address any complaints, suggestions, and inquiries from Topsham residents with great respect and consideration.
I am excited about his interest in making Topsham a more sustainable community, that will attract other young families to move here, while reducing our tax burden. Matt’s qualifications make him a great candidate and Topsham would benefit greatly from a fresh perspective.
Yvette Meunier,
