Congratulations to Woodbridge Democratic Slate of Candidates!
This election serves a a reminder to all of us that every vote counts. While the Democratic margins of victory were high in many of the races, the First Selectman race came down to just 8 votes…
LTE: Let’s Call a Spade a Spade
We have repeatedly heard that the Common Ground slate is neither beholden to nor aligned with any political party or entity at the local, state, or national levels. But is this the full story? The slate is endorsed by the Woodbridge Republican Town Committee (WRTC), and the campaign has non-Woodbridge individuals, including the Campaign Chair and Treasurer, with extensive experience running Republican campaigns across Connecticut….
LTE: Real Property Tax Phase-In Redistributes the Tax Burden But Is No Free Lunch
I read with disdain a recent letter from Javier Avilés and Scot Prudhomme criticizing First Selectman Mica Cardozo for not phasing in taxes after last year’s state-mandated property revaluation. To be clear: a phase-in is not a free lunch. It means that those whose property values rose less would have to subsidize those whose values rose more….

How Does Woodbridge Actually Work? Let’s Talk About The Boards That Keep It Fair.
In our first two installments, we explored the town’s executive leadership and the school boards shaping education. But town government is much more than just our chief executive, legislative body, and school boards. Some of the most direct, personal impacts on residents come from elected boards you might not think about often—unless you’ve needed them yourself….
How Does Woodbridge Actually Work? Let’s Talk About Who Sets The Vision For Our Schools
If you’re a parent, chances are you’ve heard of Beecher Road School or the Amity Regional School District. But who actually oversees them? And how do local elections impact the education your children receive?
A Message on 804 Fountain St. from the First Selectman, Mica Cardozo
Dear Neighbor,
In recent weeks, I have heard from many residents with questions related to who decides what can be built in Town and where. As First Selectman, I feel it would be helpful to provide timely information about our Town government and the way we make these decisions. So, I’d like to take a moment to provide some clarity around these questions…
How Does Woodbridge Actually Work? Let’s Talk Who Leads Our Town
If you’ve ever asked yourself, “What exactly does the First Selectman do?” - you’re not alone.
Most of us moved to Woodbridge for what we love about it: the open space, the schools, the sense of community. But few of us arrive with a deep understanding of how town government works, especially the roles we see on our ballots every couple of years…
