Police Commission

Scott Cicciari

If re-elected, “my focus would be to continue to support the police in conjunction with the voice of the residents in this town.”

Scott has lived in Newtown for the last 18 years with his wife, three children and Dog Bailey (Cavalier King Charles).

Scott has served over the last 3 years as Vice Chair of the Newtown Police commission. Prior to joining the commission, he started the Newtown Police Building fund that helped restart the discussion / funding for a new PD. Today the police serve out of that new building!
