LE: Gatsas is a first-class act
As a resident of Senate District 16 it’s been an honor to be represented in Concord by Senator Ted Gatsas.  I’ve enjoyed the kind of first-class representation we should expect from our elected officials.   

For many years I served as a Town Councilor in Hooksett.  Issues came before us that required the attention of department heads in Concord.  As a council we would do our due diligence and outreach.  Many times the action required was beyond our capacity and we would enlist the help of our State Senator Ted Gatsas.  Ted was always quick to return a call and take action. 

As an example of this I point to the floods.  Two years in a row we had “once in a generation” flooding that shut down Rte. 28.  The area was an ongoing issue due to an inadequate culvert on Benton Road.  The fix was beyond the financial capacity of the town and quite frankly required coordination between town and state due to permitting issues.  We called Ted Gatsas and he spearheaded the project.  He brought the town and the state to the table and crafted a solution that was a win win for everyone.  Without a doubt this project would not have come to fruition without the leadership and relentless persistence by Ted Gatsas.

The voters of Manchester are lucky to have the opportunity to elect Ted Gatsas as their next Mayor.  As a constituent of District 16 I know that I will certainly miss his service.
