RRSD ENDORSEMENT ANNOUNCEMENT

Ridgefield Residents for Smart Development (RRSD) is proud to announce our official endorsement of Blake Consentino for State Representative!

As a third generation Ridgefielder, Blake deeply understands what makes our town so special.

More importantly, he knows exactly what’s at stake. For years, RRSD has fought to protect Ridgefield’s historic character, natural beauty, and neighborhood integrity from reckless, over-development and top-down mandates from Hartford that threaten our local decision-making.

Blake is ready to take that exact same fight to the State Capitol.

Why Blake Consentino is the choice for Smart Development:

Defending Local Control: Blake firmly believes that the people who live in Ridgefield, not out of town developers or state bureaucrats should have the strongest voice in deciding our town's future and zoning laws.

Preserving Our Community: Raised right here, he is committed to protecting our town's environment, natural infrastructure, and unique charm for generations to come.

A Legacy of Service: Public service and local advocacy run in Blake's family. He is stepping up to ensure Ridgefield remains a beautiful, sustainable, and affordable place to live, work, and raise a family.

It’s time for leadership that listens to residents and fights for smart, responsible growth. Please join us in supporting Blake Consentino for State Representative this November!
